@ChineseJunk1 David, I've been on your site now for over two hours trying to find a list of all the vehicles, but I cant seem to find the one I'm looking for. It's the white SUVs after SCDF's truck. Do you have any close-up shots of those vehicles and info on what they;re used for? Thank you and very nice website. I've bookmarked it for future reference.

@haaatz Hi there, The white SUVs were acquired to support SAF peacekeepers. It was displayed at the Army Open House in 2009. Will dig up some photos.

@ChineseJunk1 Thanks David, just did a quick search on the net and it's apparently the Ford Everests, but with the roof cage, snorkel and push bumpers it looks awesome.

Anybody knows what's the name of the desert sand-coloured truck towards the end of the Mobile Column???

[ChineseJunk1]

@arronlee33 Hi Arron, It's a MaxxPro Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle. The Singapore Army calls it an MPTV. Please see blog entry for 17 July 2010.

Didn't know SCDF had Broncos(?) !!!

@rampager89

SCDF do not have Broncos. The one you saw is the Bv206 TFV, ex-SAF.

@skuadron17

SCDF has some variants of the Broncos as well.

@pilotsnoopy

Oh not that I'm aware of. Recent acquisition?

[pilotsnoopy]

@skuadron17

[skuadron17]

@pilotsnoopy

Been operational for some years?? U serious? So that makes SCDF the other operator besides SAF & British Army, yes? Can anyone else shed some light on this? ChineseJunk?

@pilotsnoopy They modify the Broncos into Tracked Firefighting Vehicle (TFV) , for fighting forest fire
