SINGAPORE AIRSHOW — The US Marines have reportedly made inquiries about ST Engineering’s AirFish wing-in-ground effect craft, designed to take off and land on water.
“The US Marines have discussed our 10-seater,” Leon Tan, general manager at ST Engineering told Breaking Defense. The Singapore military “has viewed it” during the show, as well.
This would be useful for deploying small Recon or Raider teams.

Demonstrating the wide range of capabilities that ST Engineering produces, the company also displayed for the first time at the airshow a new hybrid infantry fighting vehicle intended for export. Designed to shield the 11 to 12 troopers inside from blast effects, the 77,000 pound Terrex S5 Trooper has an isolated floor, and the seats for troops are mounted to the ceiling.It includes an autonomous targeting system, with the human remaining in the loop for the final decision to shoot, Tan said. The standard version boasts a 30mm gun which can be fired from inside the vehicle. It has bright and crisp touchscreen displays for driving, maintaining and operating the IFV’s various sensors. Breaking Defense was allowed inside the vehicle but no photography was permitted.
I like that it can carry a full squad.
