During the Yom Kippur War, MG Ariel Sharon ordered his
tanks to cross the Suez Canal to its west bank, and sweep
northwards to cut off the entire Egyptian armies deep in the Sinai
Desert on the east side of the Suez.
Unable to cross back to the Egyptian side of the Suez Canal,
most of the Eyptian army capitualated to the advancing Israeli
forces.
Before capitulating, the Egyptian had put up strong interlocking
defense that took a heavy toll on Israeli continous and determined
counter attacks to dislodge the Egyptian, and win back critical
ground.
The IDF was able to overcome the Egyptians resistance by means
of good planning, good, daring and intelligent commanders, and well
trained and motivated soldiers.
With Singapore already developing a 3G SAF - that
is willing to learn from the war experiences of
other military - do you think that there will be any
repeat to what the Japanese suffered ?
