FDPA isn’t exactly an alliance per se. Whilst yes it is the base of a defense agreement against external threats to Malaysia + Singapore, it really doesn’t hold anyone to anything past convening immediately to discuss the issue/threat/attack.
In practice, it’s likely that some form of aid would likely be rendered though.
Would make a really fun one tho tbf. The Turkey full TT is really appealing…
It’s got a bunch of unique vehicles and its own MBTs to boot. However I have a feeling the aviation tree would be lackluster to say the least…
If they really add Singapore to China they should bring back m1a1 aim and canadian leopard2 to British tech tree.
Why only China can have m1 and leopard2 sametime that’s unfair.
Nah if singapore goes to japan it means it gives RSAF aircraft to exist. I never made a singapore air tech tree for Israel is because basically most of singapore planes are copies of israel.

I would see Chile more in the subtree for Israel, the Chaffee and Sherman M-50 HVMS as well as a ship were passed to the developer, the Chilean navy and land and air force are made up of Israeli equipment, but Singapore could also be a solid candidate given the relationship that Singapore has with Israel
As a Chinese person, I agree with the Singaporean perspective. While there are minor cultural and historical links between our nations, using this as justification to forcibly merge the Singaporean tech tree with the Chinese tech tree is unreasonable. That said, if Singaporean vehicles were added to the Chinese tree, I wouldn’t oppose it outright—after all, many of us appreciate NATO-style weaponry (which, to be honest, NATO equipment does have aesthetic appeal).
However, I categorically oppose adding Singapore to the Japanese tech tree. While Thailand’s inclusion in the Japanese tree is historically justified (WWII to modern alliances), this logic does not apply to Singapore. Singapore would fit better under Israel or another nation, but never Japan.
My perspective:
Singapore was never occupied by Japan during WWII, unlike Thailand, which collaborated with Axis powers.
Post-independence, Singapore’s military partnerships lean toward Israel, the US, and Europe (e.g., Israeli-inspired SAR-21 rifle, German-designed submarines).
