Schout-bij-nacht René Tas becomes the new inspector of the Dutch Navy. On 9 September, he will take over command of the armed forces from Vice Admiral Rob Kramer as Vice Admiral. Tas is expected to have the task of setting the course for the Royal Netherlands Navy for the next four years. He will be bound by the principles of Defence Vision 2035. The admiral began his career at the Royal Institute of the Navy in 1982. Gea van Craaikamp, State Secretary at the Dutch Ministry of Defence, describes Tas as rational, energetic and effective: "Tas likes to set a target with his team that he can set his sights on. He has a keen eye for environmental influences. He has proven this during his intensive operational career in various positions."
