While the Republic of Singapore Air Force is getting a good look at the F-35 fighter jets it is buying, it is already conducting mid-air refuelling exercises to keep the aircraft longer in the sky. Singapore’s newest tanker is making its first ever appearance in Exercise Pitch Black in Darwin. The A330 MRTT conducts mid-air refuelling so aircraft can stay longer up in the sky in large-scale combat training scenarios, for example. Exercises like these have given more insights to the F-35Bs especially as they are set to be delivered in four years.

If daddy America invades China or Russia, then the latter will have to take out Singapore, which is the unsinkable aircraft carrier of daddy.
Step 1: Issues ultimatum for all foreigners to leave Singapore within one week.
Step 2: Accepts Singapore's surrender after one week.
….
No chance for mighty Singapore to use those expensive toys.
P.S. Look at Ukraine, how many billionaires, millionaires and PAP politicians would still be around to fight the war alongside you poor people?
This is the hard truth lah!
Ha ha ha!
The same way every other country’s f-35s will be refueled.
A strong woke culture ,i feel it does.
It will be permanently parked and operated in Australia, and Singapore will export the cannon fodders when the time comes.

I was lucky enough to be passenger on a RAF VC10 watching Tornado F3s getting refuelled as a Cadet and it was simply amazing.
25 years ago that was so can't imagine how much has changed in that time.
But USA is holding the F35 remote control and backdoor access 😅
I am very proud of Singapore respect.Many genius in Singapore and no Rasis county
Mind boggling!… Singapore such a small country…Why the need to mid refueling??? Just land back to island and refuel..
Unless Singapore wants to invade Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei? I highly doubt so..
No way, so many Chinese PLA spy in Singapore 😭 if you know, u know 🥱
🌹
This is great. Go singapore.
Another white elephant?
Indonesia also wants to buy the F-35 but the United States refuses, maybe we have to wait another 10 years for the purchase of this stealth jet to be approved
Geht CNG O2 bei 1000+ bar gemischt auch als Treibladungaussee für Stealth Gleitbomben, Raketen und Granaten mit CBN Hülle ?
SU57 Felon vs F35 Panther or F35 Lightnng II
US would sell Singapore F-35 but not to Taiwan and everyone is complaining Taiwan does not do their part to stengthen its self-defense.
Good luck to the world smartest proud city-nation S'pore, but wait for your neighbor to have more powerful jets coming.
We can do together ❤️ 💪 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
In times of war, our Singapore fighter pilots will quietly target any US or NATO planes in the South China Sea.
Exercise Target China or Russia
Speedily, Re-Arming the aircrafts quickly & safely is just as important.
Singapore government so pro-PRC, why want to buy US defence equipment? Singapore just keep kowtow to the PRC.
Well done Singapore, welcome to the club with the acquisition of F35s.🇦🇺👍 🇸🇬
Hooray and very proud of our RSAF F35-B team in action.👏👏👏
“With a little coordination”💀💀
GG taxpayers money. Opting for the F-16 or F-18 makes more sense then F-35
Let’s hope that SG won’t get carried away with some of these US fighter jets f35 added to their airforce, after all, the island has a very tiny air space for these latest jets to even fly around, let alone in an actual combat situation b4 venturing into other nations’ air space, creating more hostilities than necessary. Besides, SG could better safeguard its sovereignty by trying harder to keep its neutrality intact , in the midst of a geopolitical war between the superpowers.
Why in the world would they need this again? Wouldn't it be more efficient for them just to land the damn plane and refuel on ground considering how small Singapore is?
Americans had this capability for a while already, but now SG has it too! Cool:)
Lol marketing
Another country buying the most expensive dud in the history of warplanes.
first i thought by mistake usa sell f35 to china 🥶
More power team Singapura! 👍🏼👍🏼
If you want peace then prepare for war.thats how you avoid war.
