All core mine defence capabilities are combined on the 332CL class boats. The refit is a good example of successful co-operation between the navy and industry. Following the introduction of ten Frankenthal-class (332A) minehunting boats and the conversion of ten Hameln-class boats into five Ensdorf-class (352) and five Kulmbach-class (333) boats, the German Navy has had three different systems for naval mine warfare since 2001. A fourth variant was introduced with the conversion of two Class 332A minehunting boats into pure Class 332B minehunter patrol boats. Access marineforum digital+ Are you already a registered user?

Marine MArs Maintenance Channel (M³C) - what sounds cryptic at first, reveals itself at second glance as an outstanding tool for remote maintenance - for the navy, from the naval arsenal. In short, you could compare it to telemedicine, but M³C can do much more. But let's start with the beginnings. Since 2010, a small group of engineers and technicians from the Naval Arsenal (MArs) have been working with industry to develop a way of providing the maintenance services of the MArs to floating units, even in remote areas of operation, with as little delay as possible by means of remote support and remote access. The simple handling and operability of the...

Submarines International: Strong together

Submarines International: Strong together

A successful German-Italian partnership began with the construction of the submarine class 212A. Portugal is now also benefiting from the advantages of the trinational partnership. 25 years ago, on 22 April 1996, Germany and Italy signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to mark the beginning of a far-reaching partnership in the field of submarines.

Even at this time, the joint vision extended far into the future. Following the procurement phase, the MoU was extended on 2 September 2002 by a supplement...

The German Navy's new multi-purpose combat ship class 180 (MKS 180) officially becomes the frigate class 126 (F 126). This rightly spreads a feeling of "Now it's really starting" everywhere. Manoeuvre whistle. All hands cast off and in. Certainly a moving moment for anyone who goes to sea or has gone to sea. I, former commander of the frigate Hessen and authorised representative of the Inspector of the Navy (BV Marine) in the Class 126 frigate project for ten years, feel the same way - a project name that you have to get used to after such a long time. Basic considerations for a medium surface combat unit...
