Maritime fact check - Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania state election 2021
Elections will be held on Sunday - and not just at federal level! The state parliament of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is also looking for a new composition at the end of its five-year legislative period. With over 2,000 kilometres of coastline, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern has the longest coastline of any federal state in Germany and plays a leading role nationally and in some cases globally with its ports, shipyards and maritime on- and offshore industry. The election programmes of the two main parties represented in the state parliament and the Wahl-O-Mat should help us with this! This is a digital comparison tool for the programmes...

Little Red Riding Hood and the Left

Australia - Patrol Boat Concentration Period
Small boats are booming again - the flourishing market for coastguard and combat boats known as offshore patrol vessels is the best proof of this. However, coastal and shallow water operations need to be practised, especially for OPVs, which are usually stationed and operated individually, if these boats are to function together on an ad hoc basis and provide a capability when required. This also applies to the southern hemisphere: Australia recently brought together four of its thirteen ARMIDALE-class patrol boats stationed in the North and South regions in Darwin and practised various scenarios and capabilities together with the amphibious landing ship HMAS CANBERRA and an ANZAC-class frigate. This was the first time since...
