    Hi fazvik,
    The birds had to make pit stops along the way lah, plus mandatory rest periods for the aircrew.

    The RSAF has done long-range CONUS-SING deployments on several occasions staging through places like Guam.

    I guess there will be OPSEC issues to level the photo of the F15SG.
