Singapore MINDEF plans to buy four US-made F-35 jet fighters to update its ageing current fleet.



Giving an update on the plans, Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen told parliament that Singapore ‘will request an initial acquisition of four F-35s, with the option of a subsequent eight if we decide to proceed’.

The current price of an F-35 ranges from $90 million to $115 million, he said, adding the cost had been steadily falling due to healthy orders from around the world.
