Recently, Singapore announced plans for the purchase of 12 more F-35 fighter jets, and this time, Singapore's Minister of National Defense, Ng Eng Hen, has made a lot of publicity about the F-35A, including the introduction of the F-35A fighter jet. Twelve F-35B Lightning II aircraft had been ordered prior to Singapore's acquisition of the F-35A, while Singapore's Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen said that both models of JSF aircraft have their own merits and can complement each other. As an ally of the United States, Singapore is able to purchase fifth-generation aircraft from the United States, and the American first-class industrial company Lockheed Martin (Lockheed Martin) has developed fifth-generation aircraft, while the F-35A and F-35B are one of the models in addition to the F-35A and F-35B.
Singapore's defense minister has exposed the crisis in Ukraine, which is an insult to the Russian military, according to a news release from Singapore. Singapore's Ministry of Defense** suddenly revealed that there was a war in Ukraine; Singapore claims that the U.S. Air Force dropped F-35A fighters into Ukrainian airspace and discovered the location of Russian anti-aircraft missiles in Ukraine, thereby learning about the deployment of Russian troops; Singapore did not disclose when and where it used the F-35A to participate in the war, only that the US Air Force threw the F-35A into Ukrainian airspace, in blatant defiance of the no-fly zone imposed by Russia over Ukraine.
The U.S. Air Force sent F-35A fighters to invade Ukrainian airspace, and the Russian A-50U air defense radar did not detect the U.S. Air Force, showing that the U.S. Air Force F-35A has excellent battlefield performance, and it is obvious that the F-35A fighter is like a "no man's land" in Ukrainian airspace, which also strengthens Singapore's confidence in the purchase of American F-35A Lightning II fighters. Considering the distribution of the US Air Force F-35A in Europe, it is likely that the F-35A fighters are in service with the British Lykenheath airfield in Ukraine, while the US Air Force has long equipped the F-35A "Lightning II" at the Lykenheath airfield in the United Kingdom.
The United States fifth-generation fighter flew unscrupulously over Ukraine, and Russia did not find it at all, which means that Russia's anti-** radar failed, and Russia once boasted that it could detect the performance of the US Air Force's ** fighter, but now it seems that Russia is bluffing, after all, Russia has not made any counterattack against F-35A fighters, which is also a shortcoming of Russia's air defense strength. Russia also has fifth-generation aircraft, but the Su-57 is not in large-scale production, and Russia's Su-57 fighter is also in mass production, but the production is seriously insufficient, so in the crisis in Ukraine, Russia does not often use the Su-57.
The US F-35A fighters, without Russia's knowledge, broke into Ukraine's airspace, which is also to warn the Chinese people that the US F-35A fighters, as well as F-35B and F-35C, are very important existences. At present, the United States is using fifth-generation aircraft to contain China, while the United States is deploying F-35 fighters in Japan and the Ryukyus, while the United States is giving F-35 fighters to Japan and South Korea.
