Loyal "wingman" to the improved formidable frigates and MRCV destroyers coming soon? wink.gif

These USVs are the size of RSNs old missile gun boats and can carry a lot of sensors and weapons...

Spice 250 ER - more than 150km in range with a warhead -249 lb approaching the warhead size of a nsm missile. It has a small turbo jet engine at the back.

Yet small enough for a f16 or f15 to carry a couple during a single flight

IAF are likely using Spice glide bombs or even the Spice 250 ER which is a glide bomb with a turbo jet engine with range in excess of 150km.

Other users include Singapore, South Korea, Columbia, etc. And soon Euro countries like Germany.

It is relatively cheap compared to missiles as the system is just an enhanced add-on to current bombs users have.

Spice is so precise that an adjacent building will be left intact albeit with some damage.

Per PAC report on LCS, original cost was RM9.128b but only RM6.006b incurred. Add RM2.098b to complete 5 means RM5.22b required to complete 5. Average cost per unit RM2.245B.

Timeline: Complete design by Aug 2024.
LCS 1: Launch May 2024, Delivery Aug 2026 (current construction status: 60.74%)
LCS 2: Launch May 2025, Delivery Apr 2027 (current construction status: 48.09%)
LCS 3: Launch Jan 2026, Delivery Dec 2027 (current construction status: 43.75%)
LCS 4: Launch Sep 2026, Delivery Aug 2028 (current construction status: 36.49%)
LCS 5: Launch May 2027, Delivery Apr 2029 (current construction status: 22%)
LCS 6 construction status 0%. Equipment to be used for other LCS. Hence LCS 6 buy was dropped.

^ have they even sorted out issues from the first ship? Otherwise fixes will need to be retrofitted to all 5 which may incur more costs and delays.

Whilst more than a 1000 troops were in the US for exercise forging sabre 2023, close to 5000 troops were simultaneously in Australia for exercise wallaby 2023.

Key point amomgts others: Sgs SAF competence in logistics.

Endurance class lpd beast mode at Ex wallaby 2023 - see number of landing crafts (excluding the ones inside).

RSN will tell you that it is a LST and tonnage in excess of 8500 tons.

The same ship was sold to the thai navy with stated tonnage of more than 9500+ to 10000 tons.

The 4 endurance class lpds will be replaced by 2 JMMS lhd/light carriers. I suspect RSN will also build 2 more multi role support ships for risk management.

Thales open DefenceHub in Singapore.

Pretty obvious why this is the case. Sgs MRCV destroyers and likely improved Formidable frigates will operate the European An-Spy Aegis equivalent radar - Seafire. Other stuffs include tech transfer, joint research and development and production of electronics e.g. those used in French aircraft such as Rafale.
