Singapore's Top Gun
I came across this article this morning in the local newspaper. The article requires subscription but I'll post some details about it.

Last month, Aviation Week ran an article on Red Flag and inside the article it mention an engagement where an RSAF F-16 pilot saved an EA-6B Prowler by shooting down a simulated MiG that slipped through a blockade of F-15 Eagles.

The pilot is Major Ong Swee Chuan, call sign 'Sushi.' He has more than 1,300 hours in the F-16 and in the half-yearly Top Gun competition at Luke AFB, he topped three of the five categories.
