National and alliance defence is once again becoming the focus of attention at NATO. The ability to defend against approaching missiles in an international network is central to this.
The Maritime Theater Missile Defence Forum (MTMD Forum) was founded in 1999 on the initiative of the Netherlands, the USA and Germany. In 2004, Australia, the UK, Canada, Italy and Spain joined the forum and confirmed their commitment through a joint Memorandum of Understanding. France and Norway joined in 2009 and 2015, followed by Denmark in 2016. The latest and twelfth member since 2020 is Belgium. They all operate units that can carry out anti-air warfare (AAW) or ballistic missile defence (BMD) missions as a unit.

The magazine MarineForum is published ten times a year. The publication of the Naval Officers' Association (MOV) is published by the German Maritime Institute (DMI). It is independent, non-partisan and is neither directly nor indirectly supported by ministries or other German authorities. This independence gives the magazine the character of a forum in which contradictory opinions are also discussed.
