The name, Black knights, originates from the game chess. The Knight is widely regarded as the most aggressive, flexible and manoeuvrable of the chess pieces. It has the ability to breach barriers and move in nimble and strategically important directions. Therefore, the Black Knights exemplifies flexibility, precision manoeuverability as well as the mental and physical agility of our pilots.

The Black Knights is also the formation insignia of Tengah Air Base, home to the RSAF's fighter aircraft and the RSAF Black Knights. The Black Knights emblem is sported on the red vertical tail of each of the team's aircraft.

The team's name is emblazoned on both sides of the aircraft which is painted in our National colours, red and white.

  • @fenderstratocaster96 Nope! Dude, some country already bought the F-22.

  • @Doctorscientist1998 nah. i find the f-35 too overrated. besides, i'd rather singapore buy a F-22 raptor, which is faster and deadlier than the f-35 anyway. screw the STOL or VTOL available in the f-35. but well, US will never let anyone have their f-22s anyway. so yeah. lets keep dreaming..

  • @fenderstratocaster96 Sad:( I hope Singapore buys the f-35

  • @Doctorscientist1998 not true. we had the f16. but after negotiations and careful analysis, singapore chose the F-15 over the Eurotyphoon fighter.. and then we bought the f-15 from the US..

  • wait the second... my friend say Singapore has only have F-15 but america has not give us F-16 at all?

  • Most aerobatic manouvers are performed below 10,000ft where the oxygen level in e cockpit is OK (above that altitude they risk Hypoxia) - but they may still need the mask for communication cos the microphone is embedded in the mask - Watch the Blue Angels ... No Masks or G-suits :3P

  • then y they train withoout oxygen and mask

  • Not since Frank Singam (Hunter - 1974-78) .... and A.M Fernandez (Hunter - 1983-??) i think ...
