I think Spore has not just followed the norm of few countries in the design of UMF.For example, the safety codes developed by Singapore have been used by NATO to revise their own safety codes.
In Singapore, collaboration partners include the Centre for Protective Technology of NUS, the Protective Techonology Research Centre at NTU, and the Institute for High Performance Computing.

Our international partners include the Defence Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), the Naval Facilities Engineering Services Centre (NFESC) and Sandia National Laboratories of the US, the Norwegian Defence Construction Service, and the Swedish Defence Research Agency and the Swedish Armed Forces HQ. DSTA has successfully completed the large-scale testing in Sweden and US.
Our work in the UAF project has contributed to the pool of knowledge in underground ammunition storage and explosive. For example, the safety codes developed by Singapore have been used by NATO to revise their own safety codes.
DSTA represents Singapore as a member of a NATO working group to review the NATO codes for underground storage. DSTA leades the group's efforts in the area of ground shock prediction and safety.
DSTA is also now a member of the Kiotz Group, an international body comprising a group of experts from Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands who work on safety issues associated with the storage, processing, and transport of ammunition and explosives.
UNDERGROUND CAVERNS ON JURONG ISLAND?
(below sea bed is my guess.see below)
2.This is under reseach to store chemical productions.STimes 27.05.2005 p.H41,
SLEW OF MEASURES TO BOOST SPORE GLOBAL TRADE.
Fr NTU site,many projects for underground have been actively carried out for many years.
The island was only about 10km2 in 1994.A hugh reclamation project---may be one of the largest in the world---started in around 1995 to add other 20km2---that is slightly one and half times of Changi Airport.The project will be completed in few years time.
The old land is mostly occupied and the new land is ses sand.so,the only
possible location for caverns is below sea bed!
When can we see reserve fighters are stored in caverns? -
yah yah all very high tech...but do u know how they simulate the weightload for the UAF?

Each 13-m-high cavern can accommodate six basketball courts side by side.
For security reasons, the Defence Ministry is not revealing the number of the caverns nor how deep they have been dug.(see my starting posting)
Blast door at every chamber can withstand a 250-tons explosion and prevent it from spreading to other chambers.

According to Channel 8 news clip in DSTA site,each chambers can hold 100
containers!! -
you know, i know then not secret already
so deep, how long it takes to deliver the bombs up?
ppl just bomb the opening, everything will be stuck below
maybe its just water treatment plant below
lolx....
Maybe its a research facility
trying to create chimeras

There is a hugh barrier near the entrance.I think DSTA staff old enough
having watched a movie 'Squad 633'.Bombers in WW2 ,using sphere shape
bombs to destory underground factlity in DSTA site.
There are many bends and debris traps to contain any explosions.
Search 'explosion' or ' underground ammunition facility' in DSTA site.

Dunt Fxxx me.It come fr an official web site.The ammunition will be stored in caverns to be blasted out of the granite, at depths of about 100 m or more underground......
Aside from saving land, he said, the cavern project has put local engineers
on the world map for their research into ground shock and the use of water to absorb the energy of an explosion. "Both these studies presented challenging problems that required large-scale computer simulation and comprehensive field tests. Our scientists and engineers have acquired international stature for their work."
The Straits Times understands that Singapore's research has been incorporated into the new standards for underground ammunition storage which are being drawn up by the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation.

2..Water can absorb power of big blast
Today STimes 29.06.2005 reported DSTA has used 10 tonnes explosions to
tested the effects of water to reduce damages.DSTA has spent at least 6
years to develope this technology.No other country has experiment like this.
They just worked on paper!! -
The UAF is an open secret. But it is also critical for our national security. It is wise for us not to discuss it openly, esp for those bro who had in depth knowledge on the facility; to prevent accidental leakage of info to people with bad intention to make use of the forum.

2.Water to absorb explosion
Date: 29/06/2005 STimes
It's true, water can absorb power of big blast
By: David BoeyDEFENCE engineers here made an explosive breakthrough recently that could
radically change the design of military bunkers and civilian bomb shelters.
After experiments showed that water-filled containers could help absorb the
destructive power of a bomb blast, engineers from the Defence Science and
Technology Agency (DSTA) held a full-scale trial with their counterparts in
Sweden, blowing up 10 tonnes of explosives.
Packed around the 10 one-tonne lots of explosives - each capable of punching
a 3m-wide crater in the ground - were containers filled with two tonnes of
water each.
On detonation, the containers were wrecked. But the energy from the
explosion vapourised the water, reducing the effect of the blast by 60 per
cent.
Hailing the results as a major breakthrough, DSTA chief executive Richard
Lim said yesterday that defence engineers worldwide had considered using water
barriers to reduce the effect of an explosion.
But none had tested the idea on the scale of the experiment conducted in
Sweden last month. He added that the experiments are important as water
barriers can potentially reduce the amount of land needed as a safety buffer
around ammunition bunkers.
Mr Lim updated the media on research developments at DSTA when he unveiled a
60-page book to mark five years of DSTA's achievements.
The book will be distributed to organisations such as government bodies,
tertiary institutions and public libraries.
DSTA was formed five years ago from several Ministry of Defence departments
to serve as the national authority on weapons procurements and military
technology.
Mr Lim added that another area his engineers are working on is to help
national security planners assess the impact of a bomb blast, similar to the
car bomb detonated outside the JW Marriott Hotel in Jakarta. The August 2003
terror attack killed 12 people.
'One of the scenarios that we are looking into is the extent of building
damage and casualties in the event of a car bomb exploding near or at the
entrance of a hotel, similar to the attack at the Marriott,' he said.
From its analysis, using computer modelling and other tools, DSTA will
recommend measures to minimise casualties and damages, if not prevent an
attack. -

Another Sg's breakthrough in underground storage?
1.Key developmental projects by JTC in FY 2005
Press Release of JTC dd 21 July 2005
Underground cavern at Jurong Island
7 JTC has completed a Phase II feasibility study for an underground cavern for hydrocarbon storage in Jurong Island. The Phase II study focuses on viable business models, technical and economic feasibility of the underground cavern which will help enhance Singapore's position as a regional oil trading and storage hub. From the study, the conceptual plan for the underground cavern complex indicates that there is a potential of over 3 million cubic metres of underground storage.
8 JTC is currently speaking to potential customers, as well as continuing to discuss with industry players to obtain inputs and feedback. The Corporation is expected to have more details on project implementation in a few months' time.

2....and a $760 million underground cavern on Jurong Island that could have three million cubic m of oil storage...... fr STimes 22.07.2005 pH34
3. What is the conversion of barrels to m3? 1 barrel =160 liters?
Currently,the max. storage capacity on ground in Sg for oil is 22.3 million barrels...A new on ground storage of 1.5 million barrels costs $100 m STimes 21.07.05
fr http://www.onlineconversion.com/volume.htm
If 160 l is true,then the proposed cavern can store 18.75 m barrels of oil.
Sg's capacity will increase 84 %.
4. Stragetic importance of underground cavern for oil storage
It is very hard to attack!! -
Moderators around? can disable the links to the government websites?
I seriously don't think we should discuss this in here.

I wont post those really useful one here,even from open sources.dunt worry, -
why can't they just admit it that it store a stargate for SAF special force to explore other planets and it housed a squadron of F-302 bought from USA

stored it underneath the zoo?
Hey this give insight to the new Singapore defence strategy.
By basing our ammo supply underneath the zoo. Any enemy attacks will have to kill the animals in the zoo first. So before the enemy can launch another bomb, they will be condemned to hell by the World Wildlife Foundation and the war will be over!!! -
Maybe all the open info abt supposed location of UAF is fake in the first place. Misdirection.
