Under a Foreign Military Sales FMS program named "Peace Carvin V", Singapore ordered 12 F-15 Strike Eagle in 2005 and then again 12 in 2007. As from June 2010, most of those 24 airframes were delivered to 149 Squadron "Steadfast" based at Paya Lebar. However, at least three F-15SG's remained in the US and were assigned to the 366FW / 428FS based at Mountain Home AFB in Idaho, tasked with training the Republic of Singapore AF Strike Eagle crews. 8302 carried US FY 05-0002 and shows off it's big air brake during Cope Tiger 2012, the first international exercise the F-15SG's were sent to.
