To achieve mission success, the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) must not only possess a sharp front line fighting force but also capable backend logistics support. neglecting logistics in a military is foolish, because without a strong bow to provide energy for propulsion, an arrow would only be a glorified dart. The logistics support system thus needs to be sufficiently resilient and able to withstand surges in operational demand at a single point. This essay will examine the role of logistics in military capability and airpower, the demands and challenges of a strong logistics system for the Third Generation RSAF, and the RSAF’s approach in overcoming the challenges to sustaining its Third Generation capability. Keywords: Airpower; Military Logistics; RSAF
