I did not know there were so many armchair generals/admirals in SG... But I guess that is a understandable hazard with mandatory National Service.
So in that vein, here's my take on why Singapore might need or use an Aircraft Carrier if we were to get one.
But before we look at what we would use it (or them) for, we should determine what sort of carrier it might be. This video on Japan's Izumo-class "Helicopter Destroyer", provides a broad categorisation of different classes of carriers. [From 0:35 in the video].
