At the 2010 Garuda exercise also the Republic of Singapore Air Force take part in the shape of a detachment of the 145th Sqd "Hornet". They arrived at Orange on the 10th with 2 C-130H, a KC-135 and 6 F-16D Bk52+ after a fuel stop in Qatar were they encountered a huge sandstorm. The transports assets moved to Istres just after the cargo offloading. This Singaporese version of the F-16 is close to the F-16I judging the bumps around the spine and the air intake. They were ordered and delivered under the Peace Carvin IV FMS sales of 2000. They are based at Changi East Airport close to the international civil airport. It's not clear the avionics they used but it's rumored that on the dorsal spine they have the SPS-3000 EW suite. They have HMDS to use the israeli Pyton 4 Air to Air close range missile at his best. They mount the Conformal Fuel Tank in order to maximize the range and free two wing pylons. They run the Pratt&Whitney F100-PW-229 with a full afterburner power of 13,226 Kgf. The Singaporese pilot during their training travel around the world, initially in Australia, then Cazaux(F) with the A-4SU and now also with the italian M-346.

Obviously we can not forget the France connection of the 2010 edition. Most part of the job was carried out by the Mirage 2000 fighter with two variants the Mirage 2000B and the Mirage 2000-5. While the first one it's an OCU trainer the second one is a powerful single-engine single-seat french made fighters. The first flight of this upgraded version flew on 1990, while the legacy version flew on 1984. They keep the SNECMA M53-5 P2 turbofan engine, but they get a new radar the RDY (Radar Doppler Multitarget), an oversized drop tanks, a new HUD and HOTAS control. The Armee de l'Air upgraded 37 Mirage 2000C to this variant recognizable, among other things, by the absence of the pitot tube on the nose. These fighters were based at the Dijon Air Base (BA-102), 400km north of Orange Caritat under the EC 01.002 "Cigognes". For the Garuda Exercise at least 6 of these were based at Orange. The BA115 usually host the EC 02.005 "Ile De France", the Mirage 2000 OCU unit. The base it's on the south west of France close to the historic Avignon city. From here and from the close Istres (BA-125) for two week Indian, Singaporese and French fighters flew different mission like WVR (Within Visual Range) and BVR (Beyond Visual Range) both over the Meditterean Sea, Strike Attacks (in the centre of France), COMAO and Cross Refuelling
