RSAF Open House this weekend

SINGAPORE : Members of the public can view the latest arsenal of Singapore's Air Force at this weekend's RSAF Open House.

They include the F-15SG fighter jet and S-70B naval helicopter, which will be displayed at the Paya Lebar Air Base.

The event's highlight will be the "live" military demonstrations.

Armed to the teeth, and trained to handle the most intense of situations, the crack special forces unit dashes into the thick of battle.

"The whole intent about this show is to show the synergy and integratedness of the entire Air Force, and working with the Army as well. So in this air show, what we'll see is an integrated demonstration between the air as well as ground forces," said Major Benjamin Kim, F-15SG pilot, RSAF 149 Squadron.

"What we hope (they'd) take away would be for our Singaporeans to know more about the Air Force, to know what our capabilities (are) and how we do our job in defending our skies," said SLTC Foo Young Ge, chairman of the RSAF Open House 2011 Organising Committee.
