Proofreading the newspaper said, from the aircraft to the ground to air system, the operation of the Air Force Central interlocking devices on the head of the air Detective Chan Sung rights groups. After these three air defense units of the re-division of the work, to "let the air force, whether in time of peace or war, effectively directing and monitoring."
Sung rights, said: "Since 1980, 200 Squadron has been the core of our air defense units of the development process it is also in our air defense combat network, plays a pivotal role."
200 Squadron is responsible for air defense operations, mainly in real-time monitoring of our airspace if there is air threat. With the introduction of the new Air Force air defense equipment and technology, the Air Force realized the need for reorganization of air defense work. Sung pointed right reorganization allows the Air Force to better grasp the new air defense capability.
According to this understanding, since a couple of years ago, the Air Force began preparations for the establishment of 202 Squadron, it is expected to formally put into service before the end of the year. 202 Auxiliary Squadron 200 Squadron, perform real-time air defense missions.
Section 203 of the team returned to focus on the management of airspace, flight time and space in order to ensure safe and smooth traffic in our military. It must also cooperate with the Civil Aviation Authority, coordinating the use of increasingly crowded Changi Airport and Seletar Airport airspace over to facilitate military and civilian aircraft in flight.
Sung authority also said that some of the soldiers from the 200th Squadron 203 Squadron will assist responsible for matters related to defense cooperation between the five countries.
No. 200 Squadron was finally able to remove the "mystery", so the Air Force air defense preparation more transparent, but also to soldiers serving in the unit feel more for sure.
A squadron of anonymity 200th soldier said: "Now when family and friends ask me which one unit of service, I do not have to deliberately avoided, can proudly say that I come from the 200th Squadron."
