The Boeing F-15SG has quickly risen to become the primary air superiority platform of the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF). Combat Aircraft Journal studies the F-15SG fleet as it marks its first decade of service.
For a little over three decades, the mainstay of the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) attack force was the diminutive McDonnell Douglas A-4 Skyhawk. Purchased for surplus US Navy stocks, these were latterly upgraded to an impressive A-4SU Super Skyhawk standard and at its peak the air force operated some 120 examples across three squadrons — 142, 143, 145 — and also with 150 Squadron latterly in its career as a lead-in jet trainer.
