Should we have nuclear missle?

Cheowyonglee SG

Singapore as a small little nation, should and must have the nuclear ability to strike back at any nation who want to try funny stuff at us.Anyone agree?

skythewood SG

yeah, sure, compete with korea to be a nuclear weapon nation, smart move...

Asian Aussie SG

The right question to ask is if Singapore should have ABM capability like PAC-3, Arrow etc. MEADS is another 10 years off.

SM series is a Naval platform. Highly unlikely we are going to build a series of ships around AEGIS.

gigabyte14 SG

wow, well done

then put the facility at where?

petra branca?

It might interest readers that when Boeing constructed the SBX radar for ABM detection, SG firm Keppel-Amfels participated in the modification of the platform.

And shoot at who? Have you considered the nuclear fallout effects that will affect the region?

Even if it is feasible to contain the fallout (which it isn't) or beneficial to own nukes (which it isn't), SG (then PM Goh) has already signed the treaty on southeast asia nuclear weapon free zone (SEANWFZ) which is a key component of ZOPFAN. It commits SG to no-nuke weapons.

we just wait for US intervention if when something happens, since a lot of US assets, money, and their foreign investment in here for the asia pacific region...

Well whoever that is shooting at us. Most likely NK or gasp Chinese missiles.

Note any interception will be done at the near stratosphere. There will be no nuclear explosion. Any fallout will be just the radioactive elements of the warhead.

Chances of that having an adverse impact is quite low. The same goes for BioChemical warhead. That is why all the ABM missiles are huge :)

Why would random countries shoot missles at us again?

SBS2601D SG

Yeah.

We might as well get a Ohio class to go with that?

can give an example of "any nation who want to try funny stuff at us"?

we should start allow singaporeans to have guns, like AK 47 or M16, to strike back at "any one who want to try funny stuff at us", like the loan shark money collector.....
