    MARITIME NEWS – 24 JUNE 2015 Russian Navy to Start Building New Lider-Class Destroyer in 2019 The Russian Navy unveiled Lider's designs at the Army-2015 international military technical forum earlier this week. According to the description, the vessel will have a displacement of approximately 17,500 tons, with a length of 200 meters and a breadth of 20 meters. The destroyer may be armed with up to 60 anti-ship cruise missiles, 128 anti- aircraft guided missiles, and 16 anti-ship guided missiles. The vessel may reach a speed of 30 knots and operate to up to 90 days without support "We plan to start construction of a Lider destroyer in 2019. We are currently carrying out design work," Chirkov said. He added that the capabilities of the new destroyers would be comparable with the capabilities of a cruiser. Russia is currently undergoing a $325-billion rearmament program for a 70-percent increase in its military's modern weaponry by 2020. Source: sputniknews Additional facts are- The Severnoye (Northern) Design Bureau has been given the engineering design preparation assignment; it plans to launch the work in 2015. The Navy of Russia intends to order 12 advanced Leader destroyers. A half of them will be designed for the Northern Fleet, and another half – for the Pacific Fleet, officials with the Defense Ministry of Russia said. The lead ship of the new class will join the Russian Navy not earlier than in 2023-2025. The Leader will be presented in two versions – with a nuclear powerplant and gas turbine power generating units.

Border control with illegal immigration, the INDONESIA smuggling of illicit goods and arms, piracy, kidnapping for ransom, human trafficking, the drugs trade and illegal fishing are all pressing JAPAN TAIWAN concerns for governments and maritime organisations in the region. THAILAND In addition to the increase in non-traditional threats, such as the smuggling of narcotics, together with the growing military might of China, it’s never been more important for the countries in SE Asia to expand and maintain a robust maritime security presence. Not only this, but nations in the region – including their Navies and the often numerous Coast Guard organisations – must VIETNAM also begin to work together towards common goals to neutralise these threats. Offshore patrol vessels (OPVs) are the most in-demand platform globally and represent MALAYSIA the fastest growing segment of the naval market. The total number of OPVs in operation worldwide increased from 681 to 776 in the last year.

  • The Alliance of Saudi Arabia and Sudan
    1 2 The alliance of Saudi Arabia and Sudan Shaul Shay January 2017 Saudi Arabia’s King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud held talks in Riyadh, on January 23, 2017, with Sudan’s President Omar Hassan Al-Bashir. During the talks, both leaders discussed means of enhancing bilateral relations in various fields and reviewed the developments on regional and international arenas. Saudi King Salman and Sudan’s President Al-Bashir attended the signing ceremony of a framework memorandum of understanding on the Kingdom’s grant to finance a project for providing drinking water in rural areas.1 This is the third visit of Al Bashir in Saudi Arabia within 6 months (July 1, 2016 and October 25, 2016). In 2015, the president of Sudan, Omar al-Bashir has switched alliances, joining ranks with Saudi Arabia, after nearly two decades of strained ties. That means moving away from close relations with Iran, which has long used Sudan as a transit route for weapons shipments to armed groups in the region. As a part of the alliance, Sudan has cut diplomatic relations with Iran and joined the Saudi led coalition against the Houthi rebels in Yemen backed by Iran. In exchange Saudi Arabia granted $5 billion in military aid to Khartoum in 2016. Background for the Saudi Arabia – Sudan alliance Since 1997, US-imposed sanctions on Sudan’s central bank have weakened the country’s access to global financial markets and hard currency. The Sudanese regime spends 70 percent of its budget on security and military functions to finance the ongoing conflicts between the Sudanese armed forces and rebel movements in Darfur and the provinces of South Kordofan and Blue Nile.
