As for value for money/not..im not so sure.
What im sure is that , if Singapore's weapons are battle-tested, it could help singapore to market its weapon's to other markets Very Happy

Always thought Turkey was Asian rather than Europe.. Mind you, I took part in discussions on why Turkey should remained Asian rather than EU, results was almost unaminous.

SR-88 is technically SAR-88

I've seen it before used in the Balkans before.

gary1910 SG

Technically yes, but since she is in Nato so.....

And there no such thing as SAR-88 , here the proof:

SR-88, AFAIK is actually upgraded version of SAR-80.

Joe Black SG

I will be most interested to see if any country is going to buy some SAR21 for their armed forces other than law enforcement organisation. Well Singapore can supply some to Timor Leste I'm sure Smile

One thing though, I have noticed that even SAF anti-terrorist groups seem to be using M16 carbine rather than SAR21.

specfore SG

SAS has tested our 40mm AGL. May have purchased some... not sure. SEALS have tested our SAW ... quite some time ago, in the early days when SAW was in production. Reportedly, they have purchased some.

Some Scandinavian country has also purchased very small amounts of 40 mm ammo.
