Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Defence Teo Chee Hean said the F-15SG squadron will enhance the Singapore Armed Forces’ (SAF) strength to deal with future threats.

The F-15SG multi-role fighter aircraft is equipped with state-of-the-art avionics and a sophisticated integrated sensor suite.

Hean said the F-15SG is a major enhancement to Singapore’s air defence capability, and will play a significant role in the SAF’s overall operations.

The F-15SG crew received training to operate and maintain the aircraft from the Mountain Home Air Force Base in the US.
