The ship is one of six Formidable-class multi-role stealth frigates which form 185 Squadron of the Republic of Singapore navy.

While in NZ waters, RSS Stalwart took part in Singapore/NZ bilateral exercise named Lion Zeal which aimed to enhance the interoperability and professionalism of both navies.
The exercise involved RSS Stalwart, the RNZN Anzac frigate HMNZS Te Kaha and the RNZN's fleet tanker HMNZS Endeavour and included anti-air exercises and live-firing at a towed aerial target as well as conventional operations.
