In the thick of it, not just in it: marineforum as an editorial companion to our shipbuilding projects Expertly versed, editorially exciting, sometimes pointed, always on the pulse: for 50 years, marineforum has been describing, commenting on and classifying everything that floats and has a grey coating for industry experts and those unfamiliar with the subject. As shipbuilders of these very units, we provide the appropriate content. Accordingly, as an observer and companion of our numerous projects, marineforum is both an in-house must-read and a constructive media partner. When marineforum was first published in its current form at the beginning of the 1970s, two speedboats set sail for Argentina from our premises in Bremen-Vegesack. Particularly popular at the time:...

Annual Report 2023: The force continues to age and shrink

Annual Report 2023: The force continues to age and shrink

The 2023 Annual Report of the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Armed Forces identifies major deficits, particularly in the area of personnel. In contrast, a positive trend continues in the area of equipment. In her 175-page Annual Report 2023 on the state of the Bundeswehr, the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Armed Forces, Eva Högl, also draws a sobering conclusion: "The force is ageing and shrinking. Several units have large personnel vacancies. There is a lack of material, from large equipment to spare parts. The shortage has become even worse as a result of the transfer to Ukraine. The infrastructure is disastrous in many places". The armed forces are therefore "not yet fully operational, there is an enormous need for action," concludes Högl. Access marineforum digital+ You...
