Combat Management System 330 (CMS 330) CMS 330 was developed as a result of 30+ years’ experience and knowledge of Canadian and NATO naval operations. In 2008, Lockheed Martin Canada was selected to design this system as part of Canada’s HALIFAX Class Modernization project. CMS 330 provides the Royal Canadian Navy with the operational ability to carry out multi-mission operations while defending its ships in an ever-evolving, threat environment. The system was also designed as a modern, affordable solution for mid-life upgrades in the international market.

The Experience of Māori in the New Zealand Military
Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 19, ISSUE 2 Studies Embracing Indigenous Culture in Military Organizations: The Experience of Māori in the New Zealand Military Grazia Scoppio Since the pioneering work by Dutch social psychologist Geert Hofstede in the early 1980s (Hofstede, 1981), cultural diversity in organizations has been the subject of many studies both within national contexts and across nations (e.g. Amaram, 2007; Jung et al., 2009). Over the years, several scholars and researchers have looked at cultural diversity within military organizations (e.g., McDonald & Parks, 2011) and a few have focused on Indigenous people in the military (e.g., Maclaurin, 2004). Building on a previous study on Indigenous peoples in the New Zealand Defence Force and the Canadian Armed Forces (Scoppio, 2010), this article further investigates the successful participation of Māori in the New Zealand military. It uses organizational culture theory as a framework to analyze the ‘key mechanisms’ (the strategies, approaches and practices) adopted by the New Zealand military which have facilitated this partnership and mutual understanding between Māori and Pākehā (Māori term for people of European descent). These mechanisms, supported by the external and internal environments, have created an open and inclusive organizational culture that has enabled the organization to embrace Indigenous culture on the one hand, and has empowered Māori on the other. ©Centre of Military and Strategic Studies, 2018 ISSN : 1488-559X VOLUME 19, ISSUE 2 Background The previous research was a comparative study conducted during a visit to New Zealand, as part of an exchange between the Canadian and New Zealand Departments of Defence, in October 2007.

The Royal New Zealand Navy, 1910-2010 Michael Wynd
Small Steps from Empire to Independence: The Royal New Zealand Navy, 1910-2010 Michael Wynd Cet article explique le lien intime entre la Marine royale britannique et la la Marine royale néozélandaise dans l’histoire nationale et militaire de la Nouvelle-Zélande, une relation qui a commencé tôt dans l’histoire de la colonie avec l’inclusion de la Nouvelle-Zélande dans le cadre de l’Empire britannique. Jusqu’à dans le courant du vingtième siècle, la Nouvelle-Zélande a maintenu des liens étroits avec la Marine britannique et a embrassé avec enthousiasme son rôle de soutien de l’empire, comme peuvent en témoigner les contributions nationales aux deux guerres mondiales. Pour commencer, l’auteur passera en revue les contributions et le développement d’une marine très distinctement néozélandaise. La dernière partie de l’article examine le développement d’après-guerre de la Marine néozélandaise et les principaux changements qu’elle a subis pour devenir la force qu’elle est en 2010. The history of the Royal New Zealand Navy is a progression of small steps from Empire to independence. The navy in New Zealand has followed a very different path when compared to the experience of Australia and Canada. This paper will explore the influence of such factors as the nation’s manpower and financial capacity to build a fleet, perception of New Zealand’s place within the Empire, a growing self-awareness post- 1945, domestic and party factional politics in the 1970s and 1980s, and finally a shift back to multilateralism and cooperation in the past two decades.
