remembered when manning the 'Supergate' one facing the big expressway where car racers gather to have races..that place is pretty open..then again..im talking 2000..back then they already have exercise like these.
dun remember seeing public gather around.
did you guys from FDS drive the FOD
sweeper ?
That stretch of long wide road is just like a normal public road during normal day.
When driving there often have a temptation to drive faster n faster due to clear long straight road... maybe also due to the dark quiet area at night along the road, want get out fast.
Sometime TP will have mobile speed trap there.

Common misconception. That is not a runway but rather a landing zone / staging area for helicopters from the RSAF 125, 126 and 127 Squadron (SQN).FYI, there is also another "secret" runway at ECP, just behind Bedok Camps.
You care so much for what.In a war or in the stages leading to war, an enemy would disable known military runways.
Sweden has a design concept of short-field launch from dispersed/improvised air fields for jet fighters.
The JAS 39 can take off from snow-covered landing strips 800-metres long.
VTOL jets don't see widespread use. Non jet VTOL carriers like propeller based Osprey can be used.
