FRENCH SHIPYARD PROJECTS We cannot tell you, since the secrets are still under OCEA/OSV 190 - kERSHIP/B2M wraps. You will have to take a stroll yourself among the stands at EURONAVAL to discover, know and unders- tand how industry worldwide is preparing the future of naval forces, i.e. the future of peace and security at sea and from the sea. GICAN Recent naval industry news shows that the naval defence market is growing and that every country in the world with an ocean shoreline has a legitimate desire to acquire the best equipment for their naval and police forces and administrations who operate at sea or from the sea. Of course, frigates, corvettes and patrol vessels tend to capture the naval industry headlines. But there is also significant growth in other sectors, such as amphibious operations, mine warfare, special operations from the sea, and naval aviation. Not to forget submarine forces, 2015_B2M -©PHOTO DCNS / KERSHIP which are at the core of blue-water navy acquisition programmes.

Like earlier- generation versions of the aircraft, the HC-130J is used for long-range air-sea rescue missions. The Super Hercules also perform International Ice Patrol missions over the Arctic. For maritime surveillance missions, the Coast Guard relies on the HC-144A (CN235) “Ocean Sentry”. The Airbus Group aircraft takes over from the HU-25 Guardian, a military derivative of the Falcon 20 business jet, which was defini- tively withdrawn from service in 2014. The HC-144A was ordered as part of the Deepwater programme to modernize the entire Coast Guard fleet. The HC-144A can take part in tra- ditional air-sea rescue missions, but it is also equipped with a command and control (C2) system and a suite of avionics and sensors, allowing it to serve as a commander platform, e.g. for counter-narcotics operations. To complement its HC-144As, the USCG ordered 14 Finmeccanica- Leonardo C-27J Spartans in 2014.

The Coast Guard helicopter fleet comprises two rotorcraft types: the MH-60J/T Jayhawk (Sikorsky) and the MH-65 Dolphin (Airbus Helicopter. The USCG’s approximately 100 Dolphins are undergoing a progressive upgrade programme from the current MH-65D standard to the MH-65E by 2017. This involves instal- lation of an all-glass cockpit and advanced navigation capabilities to meet emerging FAA requirements. The MH-60J/T is close to the U.S. Navy’s MH-60S standard. The fleet has been progressively upgraded to the T standard since 2008. The MH-60T upgrade consist of a Rockwell Collins Common Avionics Architecture System (CAAS). CAAS is an integrated "glass" cockpit which pro- vides updated avionics and integrated Electro-optical Sensor System with recording capability via a removable memory module. Helicopters can operate from bases on shore or from Coast Guard Cutters. Some of these ships are equipped with flight decks abd are comparable in size and capacities with many of the frigates deployed by naval forces. The next chapter in the history of the Coast Guard could be written around unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). A Congressman recently called for the acquisition of unmanned aircraft for the USCG. This would not be a new development for the Department of Homeland Security, since the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency already operates medium-altitude long-endu- rance (MALE) MQ-9 Guardians, a variant of the Predator B. Specialized Coast Guard aviation personnel are jointly operating the Guardians. For several years now, Coast Guard personnel have been studying tactics, techniques, procedures and regulations in support of future UAS fielding within the Service. ■ The HC-144A is equipped with a command and control system to coordinate air-sea operations.

  • Disaster in Harbour: the Loss of HMS Vanguard
    Disaster in Harbour: The Loss of HMS Vanguard William Schleihauf Lying peacefully at anchor in the sheltered waters of Scapa Flow, the battleship HMS Vanguard suddenly blew-up on a quiet summer night in July 1917, leaving but a handful of survivors. Accident or sabotage? While the trail of evidence uncovered by the Court of Inquiry furnished no definitive answer, the conclusion that it was an accidental cordite explosion makes the most sense and has not been seriously challenged to this day. Her remains are still in the Flow, but it is unlikely that even a full archaeological survey could determine anything other than that it was indeed an explosion in one of the amidships magazines which sank the ship. The records of the Court of Inquiry shed light on the internal routines of the Royal Navy's capital ships: even in such basic (and vital) procedures as the taking of magazine temperatures, each ship handled matters in its own way. Of equal interest are the many improvements which resulted from the loss of Vanguard. Surprisingly little has been written about the sudden, catastrophic sinking of this powerful man-of-war - it is not even mentioned in the official History. ' Typical is the simple "destroyed by internal explosion at Scapa 9 July '17" in Oscar Parkes' British Battleships.2 Other later references provide little more: even R. A. Burt in his detailed British Battleships of World War One only summarises the evidence.3 In his book about the loss of the armoured cruiser HMS Natal, Cecil Hampshire discusses the Vanguard tragedy but the description is marred by his attempt to use very circumstantial evidence to find a saboteur.4 The paper before you is an in-depth look at Vanguard's destruction and the lessons learned from it, with emphasis placed on the technical tidbits that are of value when trying to learn about the day-to-day habits of the wartime Royal Navy.

  • Introductions to Heritage Assets: Ships and Boats: Prehistory to 1840
    Ships and Boats: Prehistory to 1840 Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which lack such a summary. This can either be where the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. Many of these are what might be thought of as ‘new heritage’, that is they date from after the Second World War. Principally from the archaeological evidence, this overview identifies and describes pre-Industrial vessels (that is from the earliest times to about 1840) used on inland and coastal waters and the open sea, as well as ones abandoned in coastal areas. It includes vessels buried through reclamation or some other process: many of the most significant early boats and ships have been discovered on land rather than at sea. Vessels and wrecks pre-dating 1840 are relatively rare: the latter comprise just 4 per cent of known sites around the English coast. This guidance note has been written by Mark Dunkley and edited by Paul Stamper. It is one is of several guidance documents that can be accessed at HistoricEngland.org.uk/listing/selection-criteria/listing-selection/ihas-buildings/ First published by English Heritage March 2012.

  • Design for Support in the Initial Design of Naval Combatants
    Design for Support in the Initial Design of Naval Combatants by Syavash Esbati A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering) Department of Mechanical Engineering University College London 2018 1 To my family. 2 Declaration I, Syavash Esbati, declare that except where explicit reference is made to other sources, this thesis is the result of my own work. I confirm that this thesis has not been submitted for any other degree at University College London or any other institution. Print Name: Signature: 3 Abstract The decline of defence budgets coupled with the escalation of warship procurement costs have significantly contributed to fleet downsizing in most major western navies despite little reduction in overall commitments, resulting in extra capability and reliability required per ship. Moreover, the tendency of governments to focus on short- term strategies and expenditure has meant that those aspects of naval ship design that may be difficult to quantify, such as supportability, are often treated as secondary issues and allocated insufficient attention in Early Stage Design. To tackle this, innovation in both the design process and the development of individual ship designs is necessary, especially at the crucial early design stages. Novelty can be achieved thanks to major developments in computer technology and in adopting an architecturally-orientated approach to early stage ship design. The existing technical solutions aimed at addressing supportability largely depend on highly detailed ship design information, thus fail to enable rational supportability assessments in the Concept Phase. This research therefore aimed at addressing the lack of a quantitative supportability evaluation approach applicable to early stage naval ship design.

  • ORP Bałtyk - the Oldest Ship Pre-War Polish Navy Training Ship and Hulk
    ORP Bałtyk - The oldest ship pre-war Polish Navy training ship and hulk. French protected cruiser of the early twentieth century!! Construction of the ship was associated with the colonial expansion of France in the second half of the nineteenth century. During this period, the colonial powers often built ships specially designed for long- term service in the colonies, whose job was mainly to represent the flag of the metropolis. They were generally weaker than units built to European waters, but enough to fend off local threats and keeping order in the colonies. For fixed service colonial they directed some other ships, mostly obsolete. At the end of the nineteenth century, France had colonies relatively weak naval forces, given the modernity and strength of individual permanently stationed there ships. During this period in France alone clashed different views on the development of the navy, which was favored by the multiplicity of bodies dealing with the navy or granting funds for its expansion and frequent personnel changes the position of Secretary of the Navy. The result was the construction of mostly individual ships instead of their series and repeatedly changes the concept of the development of the Navy (including the so-called concept. Young school - Jeune Écol). An expression of the influence of the traditionalists was to order a large colonial cruiser "D'Entrecasteaux", having the function as the flagship of the fleet colony. Requirements for the large colonial cruiser with a displacement of about 8,000 tons of the Works Council has formulated the Navy in 1891. Initially, they provide the main armament consists of four 240 mm guns in single turrets placed on the set of the diamond, then the requirements were reduced to two division; also resigned from the auxiliary sail.
