That is a Russian made Kilo submarine. Vietnam and Myanmar are the operators of Kilo submarines in SE Asia.

Could be yes and could be no.... because China does not participate in ISMERLO. They like to keep all secret, just like Russia before

nothing to do with stealth

I disagree. Stealth certainly had a part to play. So I disagree.

SAF has also begun operationalizing new Bronco 3 IFVs to replace Bronco 1. They are better armoured and powered and can carry more equipment. They  can also swim.

The biggest unmanned UGV Singapore has been testing and perhaps operationalized is the Hunter UGV.

Republic of Singapore Air Force Trials New Eight-wheeled Unmanned Ground Vehicle

In a significant step toward enhancing airbase security operations, the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) has initiated trials of an advanced unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). The RSAF unveiled the eight-wheeled UGV at a public event commemorating its 55th anniversary, hosted at the Paya Lebar Air Base from September 9 to 10. The UGV’s public display is a vital component of an exhibition highlighting the RSAF’s future capabilities. During an exclusive media preview of the exhibition, RSAF representatives confirmed that the UGV is currently undergoing trials at an undisclosed airbase.

While specifics such as the number of units being evaluated and the trial’s expected conclusion date were not disclosed, the RSAF’s proactive approach to adopting cutting-edge technology signals its commitment to strengthening security measures. The RSAF remained tight-lipped regarding detailed technical specifications of the UGV. Still, experts and observers have noted its striking resemblance to the Jaeger 8 multirole UGV, a product of Singapore’s defense prime, ST Engineering. The Jaeger series, developed by the Kinetics Advanced Robotics division of ST Kinetics, commenced in late 2015 and gained public attention when the Jaeger 8 was first unveiled at the 2016 Singapore Airshow.

The Jaeger 8 boasts a 2.8-meter length, a weight of approximately 1,000 kg, and an impressive payload capacity of up to 750 kg. With a top speed of 16 km/h, the UGV can be equipped with a remote-controlled weapon station armed with a 7.62 mm machine gun, enhancing its potential for security applications. The vehicle’s foundation is rooted in a commercial all-terrain platform with steering, though the supplier remains undisclosed. The Jaeger 8 is powered by lithium-ion batteries, offering a four-hour operational window that can extend to 24 hours through charging from an onboard electric generator.

This electric drive system ensures quiet operation and a maximum speed of 16 km/h, even when fully loaded. The Jaeger UGV operates in two distinct modes: remote control and semi-autonomous navigation. Equipped with an obstacle detection system utilizing a front-mounted laser and GPS unit, it has the potential to incorporate a “follow-me” mode in future developments. Controlled by an intuitive and user-friendly operator control unit with a range of approximately 1 km, the Jaeger UGV exemplifies the RSAF’s commitment to innovation and its readiness to embrace cutting-edge technology to bolster airbase security.

Available open info indicates that the army version is already in operation. These join other UGVs in service with the SAF where it relies on a network centric battlefield management approach:

Exercise Forging Sabre 2023 now involves Singapore's 4th service i.e. the Digital and Intelligence Service (the other 3 services being the Army, Navy and Air Force) with extensive use of AI to discern targets and increase the speed of the sensor shooter loop.

Singapore will be replacing its FH2000 52 cal 155mm field howitzer and the replacement system will be revealed sometime early next year or sometime next year.

https://www.shephardmedia.com/news/landwarf...o-3s-from-2024/

It seems to be a contest between these two (or perhaps already decided):

BAE's Archer - the latest iteration suits Singapores needs better as it uses a non articulated truck:

Or Elbit Sigma



Word on the street says Archer though it may well be confusion over Sigma. Elbit is collaborating with a few countries on Sigma e.g. Germany and one of them may be Singapore.

ETA: 2024 - South East Asia will have one of the worlds best Western howitzers with additional orders by other countries in the region perhaps in the near future.

Leopard tank achieves mission kills against 2 T72/80 Russian tanks.

The Russian tanks were lucky the Ukrainians were using high explosive rounds (and not sabots anti tank munitions) per their SOPs as it more useful against trenches, artillery and even IFVs.
