On 21 November 2023, the Inspector of the Navy, Vice Admiral Jan Christian Kaack, presented the Convention presented the annual report of the naval command in Berlin.
He explained: "The Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, which has continued with unchanged intensity since February last year, clearly demonstrates not only the vulnerability of our globally networked world economy, but also has a lasting impact on the global flow of goods.
Turning to the global security policy challenges, he explained:
"With the 2023 plan, I have reaffirmed the path we have taken to consistently align the German Navy with the requirements of national and alliance defence. With our 'Course Navy 2035+', we will comprehensively change course and venture a vigorous entry into unmanned systems and artificial intelligence. Our vision is a powerful, resilient, demographically resilient and therefore future-proof navy that will stand by our allies as a reliable ally, assert itself in multidimensional operations and continue to be available as a flexible instrument of German foreign and security policy."
It is now important to stay on course for "Navy 2035+". However, the participants at the Maritime Convention were well aware that the navy behind this can no longer rely on the long-awaited planning security in view of the current budget situation and its possible effects.
Interested readers should not only read the first part with the chapter "German Navy". It contains statements on the +Navy 2035+ course. Statements on the future navy can also be found later in the book. For example in the chapter "German shipbuilding". The important naval projects are mentioned there. These include current and future frigates, submarines and other units of the fleet.
