To mark its 175th birthday, the German Navy is giving itself a new target image. However, many good ideas stand in the way of just as many problems. In the 175th anniversary year of the German Navy, the inspector of the navy is looking ahead with the publication of its future structure. Vice Admiral Jan C. Kaack said in an interview with the Kieler Nachrichten newspaper: "We want to open up a big bouquet in the 2035+ vision." He is not talking about flagpoles.

The focus is on returning to the national...

In the face of multiple threats, Japan is massively arming its navy. The stealth frigates of the Mogami class are of central importance. With over 6800 islands and a coastline of 29,751 kilometres, Japan is one of the largest maritime nations. In addition to the four main islands, smaller island groups in particular ensure that Japan, with a land area of 380,000 square kilometres, has more than 430,000 square kilometres of territorial waters and an exclusive economic zone ten times the size of its land area. In view of Japan's dependence on imports of raw materials, exports of goods and fishing rights, the island nation therefore relies on powerful naval forces, the Japan Maritime Force, for maritime security issues.

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...

Environmental protection is also a priority for the German government in the maritime sector. The new Maritime Coordinator also sets a number of other priorities for action. Dieter Janecek was appointed as the Federal Government's new Coordinator for Maritime Economy and Tourism on 18 January. The Green politician wants to set new priorities in his work: "Economy and ecology belong together. Germany has set itself ambitious goals with regard to climate neutrality. I would like to support the maritime industry and the tourism industry in achieving these goals and remaining competitive at the same time. SMEs are central to this: They need to be taken on board, skilled workers need to be secured, digitalisation needs to be driven forward...
