Others.
It could be hot so might want to bring any sun protection as well as wear appropriate clothing to prevent sunburn...will be similar to the Singapore Airshow.

Beverages might not be competitively priced so bring water bottle(s) if necessary.

I dont think there will be NETS for payment of any souvenirs/services there so do bring enough cash.

Might want to consider bringing those mini portable chair used for camping just in case.

For the navy open house, the static display all require you to queue up for them, so it would take around 20 minutes to get onto any of the frigates.

The diving team performance would be in the middle, and the half-open building would be used for the performance. If good shots are to be taken, go behind the building, on the left side, and not stay at the spectators side. :D
