Jane’s Intelligence Workshop
Topics
1. Submarines of Southeast Asia
Before 2000, Indonesia was the only post-Second World War submarine operator in the region. But over the past 19 years, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines have made notable progress in either acquiring submarines, or established programmes to procure underwater vessels in the future. What are the capabilities of these vessels, and how will they change security dynamics in Southeast Asia?
2. Proliferation of Chinese Defence Systems in Southeast Asia
Military services in South and Southeast Asia have traditionally relied only on Russia, or NATO-compliant suppliers for their defence materiel. However, in recent years, several countries have turned towards Chinese manufacturers for their defence equipment. What is the secret behind China’s success in penetrating the defence market in these regions? Are there wider implications in terms of geo-politics?
