This new military branch aims to integrate intelligence and operations, develop cybersecurity strategies, and establish a dedicated training range for personnel.

Singapore has established its Digital and Intelligence Service (DIS) as the fourth military branch, focusing on modern digital threats. The DIS will integrate capabilities across intelligence, cybersecurity, and digital operations, including a joint intelligence directorate and a cyber staff department.
Led by Brig. Gen. Lee Yi-Jin, the service also includes four commands focused on joint intelligence, C4 cybersecurity, digital defense, and training.
