Listen to what in the first place?
You all are born in the generation of 70's and your way of doing
things range back to the 80's and 90's
Total Defense means a full spectrum defense, maybe im having the
sort of illusion that im staying in United states, but whateva, im
just considering the same PAC-III Missile batteries mount on our
air-bases , and the sales of all other AA stuff into other
countries through ST.
No Aircraft Carrier , but long range strike capability provided by
KC-135 ,
with some SLAM-ERs,
I do understand what you all are saying , regarding the feasability
stuff , etc...
if you all are saying that there's peace for us , i don't think
so.
There seems to be pro's and con's to every situation.
For Israel owning a nuke
-Prevent extermination of it's population
-Block from being bullied
Not
-Global Instability
-Fear of trading with it
I also don't understand why, USA , owning over 6,000 ICBMs would be
so afraid of small countries like Iraq threatening it , or
Israel.
Even for Singapore , you might argue that Singapore is already well
defended
not much need to boost any stuffs , mights well disband the arm
forces in peacetime? tomorrow you can't tell whether the armed
forces will face a challenge or not...
1 thing which we must know
Balance of power between Singapore and Indonesia and M'sia
is getting narrower in the future, we must acknowledge it ,
after
all those corruption ends , their almost 220 million total
population is gonna be more advantageous then us in the end , its
awakening dragon.
1 Reason to illustrate this point is in the M.E , just look at IL
and it's neighbours , Egypt and S.A all has latest F-16 jets, UAE
with 80 block-60 F-16,
Egypt with over 400+ M1 Abrams , just imagine , do you think IL can
survive a combined assault on it's 6 million population??
Answer is No, therefore to block off the combined assault nuke will
have to be used as a deterrent. The reason why it cannot say no is
because national security will be threatened. Cannot say yes
because will have instability.
Sooner or later , we will face up to the fact that they will
progress,
The Reason Why IL managed to progress so much is that
in 1970's the countries around it, Syria and Egypt were not using
up-to-date weapons, now Egypt almost has the same kind of weapons
they using.
NO more thing such as balance of power, Countries with higher
population will ultimately be the winner in the end...
Conclusion : Singapore Armed Forces can maintain it's balance of
power over it's neighbours for perhaps some years to come, but it
must note down that the balance of power will 1 day tilt towards
the others , due to higher population , and more contribution
towards GDP
(Just like Normal tech and acad Vs Special stream, special stream
go university faster, normal tech and acad slow, but 1 day will
catch up with them, if ever.)
When the balance of powers tilts , thats when u panic , learn from
Country X
