THE REAL STUFF II

BORGWARD IV

World War Two German Borgward IV vehicle on static display in Panzermuseum, Germany.

An interesting vehicle designed to be remotely controllable as a carrier for depositing high explosives on enemy fortified positions. Due to the small profile, they were normally able to "infiltrate" & cleared enemy positions with high success rate.

Together with a smaller remote controlled version known as Goliath, these vehicles became one of the earliest form of force mulitpler in the unforgiving battlefields.

AH-1W COBRA

United States Marines Corp AH-1W Cobra gunship on static display during the Asian Aerospace 2000 held in Singapore.

Cobra gunships rooted back to the mid 1960s during the vietnam conflict where they were used in great success for the United States Armed Forces. Most oftenly they acted as the killers in hunter/killer groups with OH-6s "Grasshopper".

This current version is capable of attacking in foul weather atmosphere with improved avionics and targeting system.

SEA LYNX

Royal Navy Sea Lynx helicopter on static display during the Asian Aerospace 2000 held in Singapore.

Multi-role helicopter platforms like this nimble Sea Lynx attaching to naval vessels greatly improve & enhance the overall capability of the ship.

This current version performs many roles onboard including anti-ship, anti-submarine missions & assisting the mothership with Over-the-horizon targeting.

S-70 BLACKHAWK

Royal Brunei Air Force S-70 Blackhawk general utility helicopter on static display during the Asian Aerospace 2000 held in Singapore.

This heavily customised version includes nose radar & undermounted ball "optical" turret plus wing stub fuel pods for better flying capabilities.

RAFALE

Dassault Rafale fighter aircraft on static display during the Asian Aerospace 2000 held in Singapore.

The markings on this double-seater indicated a company development aircraft with serial 301 on the tail. With the early success as a new generation aircraft against other developments, this could be a hot contender for many airforces around the world in the next few years.

F/A-18D HORNET

United States Marines Corp F/A-18D Hornet multi-role fighter aircraft on static display during the Asian Aerospace 2000 held in Singapore.

With the new enlarged and improved "E/F" versions still under intensive development & testing, future Hornets would soon see an even bigger & heavier role in the US Navy carrier groups for naval conflicts.

ONE HORNET, THREE STINGS?!
