Germany is more dependent on safe sea routes than almost any other nation. The navy and shipping companies work together to ensure the reliable flow of goods across the sea. "A good Navy is not a provocation to war. It is the surest guaranty of peace." These famous words, spoken by US President Theodore Roosevelt to the US Congress on 2 December 1902, could not be more relevant today. Peace is the basic prerequisite for our current and future prosperity. In order to guarantee this permanently and sustainably, we need freedom and security, which in turn are guaranteed by a wide variety of players. When it comes to the maritime dimension of German security,...

Creating up-to-date content for marineforum.online is sometimes not that easy. The ELB BUREAUX brings the content online. Hamburg in the rain. Harbour district, the Elbphilharmonie concert hall squeezed into the skyline. No doorbell sign, no inviting neon sign. The path leads into the backyard of an old canal house, where hustle and bustle prevails in modern, glass-fronted offices. Behind the marineforum's digital presence is a team of six led by Art Director Hakan Savasogan and Account Director Michaela Veers. Both have travelled together from Schleswig-Holstein via Lower Saxony to what is now Elb Bureaux in Hamburg. Six colleagues and three other external employees are part of the team and realise creative projects or the presence of marineforum on social platforms.

With the 2035+ target vision, the Navy is presenting its vision of a long-term organisation. Not all projects will be realised - for various reasons. The navy's hopes for one or two, often long overdue, modernisations were pinned on the special assets of the Bundeswehr. However, the expectations of the smallest branch of the armed forces were muted enough. Most wearers of the blue scarf did not assume that the number of flagstaffs would increase significantly or that the capability potential would change significantly as a result of the Bundeswehr Special Fund. With the publication of a target picture for the navy from 2035, the inspector of the navy is now...

How should the German Navy develop in the long term in the face of changing times, demographic trends and bureaucratic restrictions? Eight experts share their views on the current concept paper Marine 2035+. Published on 28 March 2023, the Marine 2035+ target vision is a concise paper that deals with naval tasks and fleet structure in a clear and concise manner without lingering in the cloudy style of many other strategy documents. The implied goal-means-route relationship is remarkably illuminating. The clear underlining that the navy is a capital-intensive project, while at the same time pushing unmanned systems - in poker jargon: all in - stands out positively. The future fleet structure...

Today, as a hundred years ago, it is crucial that the naval armament is appropriate to the threat. But this is precisely what the German navy lacked. "If you want peace, arm for war". When, if ever, in 175 years of naval history was the fleet equipped to meet the threat, and are we today? The image of war is the basic idea of the nature of a possible future war, its manifestations, means, intensity and the effects on military warfare. It is the backdrop for a general strategy with strategic objectives and the resulting consequences for the orientation of military means at operational and tactical level. If naval warfare assets effectively support an overall strategy, the fleet is positioned in line with the threat....
