The Heroic Destroyer and "Lucky" Ship O.R.P. "Blyskawica"
Transactions on the Built Environment vol 65, © 2003 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 The heroic destroyer and "lucky" ship O.R.P. "Blyskawica" A. Komorowski & A. Wojcik Naval University of Gdynia, Poland Abstract The destroyer O.R.P. "Blyskawica" is a precious national relic, the only remaining ship that was built before World War I1 (WW2). On the 5oth Anniversary of its service under the Polish flag, it was honoured with the highest military decoration - the Gold Cross of the Virtuti Militari Medal. It has been the only such case in the whole history of the Polish Navy. Its our national hero, war-veteran and very "lucky" warship. "Blyskawica" took part in almost every important operation in Europe throughout WW2. It sailed and covered the Baltic Sea, North Sea, all the area around Great Britain, the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. During the war "Blyskawica" covered a distance of 148 thousand miles, guarded 83 convoys, carried out 108 operational patrols, participated in sinking two warships, damaged three submarines and certainly shot down four war-planes and quite probably three more. It was seriously damaged three times as a result of operational action. The crew casualties aggregated to a total of only 5 killed and 48 wounded petty officers and seamen, so it was a very "lucky" ship during WW2. In July 1947 the ship came back to Gdynia in Poland and started training activities. Having undergone rearmament and had a general overhaul, it became an anti-aircraft defence ship. In 1976 it replaced O.R.P. "Burza" as a Museum-Ship. -

In 1988-89, the building was converted for the use of the Royal Danish Naval Museum with the aid ofa magnificent donation from »TheA.P. Moller and Mrs. Chastine Meersk. Mckinney Moller's Foundation for General Purposes". The building was constructed in 1780 by master builder Schotmann. When it was handed over to the Royal Danish Naval Museum, the building passed from the responsibility of the Ministry of Defence to that of the Ministry of Culture.

Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress
Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress September 16, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32665 Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The current and planned size and composition of the Navy, the annual rate of Navy ship procurement, the prospective affordability of the Navy’s shipbuilding plans, and the capacity of the U.S. shipbuilding industry to execute the Navy’s shipbuilding plans have been oversight matters for the congressional defense committees for many years. In December 2016, the Navy released a force-structure goal that calls for achieving and maintaining a fleet of 355 ships of certain types and numbers. The 355-ship goal was made U.S. policy by Section 1025 of the FY2018 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 2810/P.L. 115- 91 of December 12, 2017). The Navy and the Department of Defense (DOD) have been working since 2019 to develop a successor for the 355-ship force-level goal. The new goal is expected to introduce a new, more distributed fleet architecture featuring a smaller proportion of larger ships, a larger proportion of smaller ships, and a new third tier of large unmanned vehicles (UVs). On June 17, 2021, the Navy released a long-range Navy shipbuilding document that presents the Biden Administration’s emerging successor to the 355-ship force-level goal. The document calls for a Navy with a more distributed fleet architecture, including 321 to 372 manned ships and 77 to 140 large UVs. A September 2021 Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report estimates that the fleet envisioned in the document would cost an average of between $25.3 billion and $32.7 billion per year in constant FY2021 dollars to procure. -

Where previously almost the entire emphasis lay on defending Danish territory, international tasks are now playing a significant role in deter- mining the focus of Danish defence. This has given Denmark an opportunity to pursue a proactive foreign policy over the twenty years that have passed since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. At the same time, the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and on the Pentagon in Washington D.C. on 11 September 2001 have led to far greater focus on efforts to combat terrorism, extremism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. -
De-Overvie Nato Defence Planning Capability Review
ràai NORTH ATlANTIC COUNCIL L nL •)VÀ1LI CONSEIL DE UATLANTIQUE NoRD 22 May 2014 DOCUMENT C-M(2014)0027 (DE-OVERVIE NATO DEFENCE PLANNING CAPABILITY REVIEW 201312014 DENMARK OVERVIEW 1. The 2013-2017 Defence Agreement agreed in November 2012 by seven of the eight political parties represented in the Danish Parliament introduced measures to improve efficiency and inciudes a reduction of the defence budget by approximately 12% of the 2013 budget. As a result there will be major changes to the structure of the armed forces. However, there is a clear political objective that the budget cuts will not impact operational capability. Continued participation in operations is a priority within the Danish defence organisation and forces will continue to be configured to be able to deploy at short notice. The freeing of money spent on operations in Afghanistan, as a result of a reduced level of forces, will be reinvested in defence, into programmes designed to maintain operational capabilities in terms of training and materiel, but will not fully compensate for the budget reductions. 2. The aim of Denmark’s foreign and security policy is the promotion of national security and prosperity based on core values of freedom, democracy and human rights. NATO remains a cornerstone of Danish security and defence policy. Denmark’s armed forces, contributing to the defence dimension of its pro-active foreign and security policy, are actively engaged in current international operations, conducted under the aegis of NATO or the UN. Active engagement in the Arctic/High North is also of strategic importance to Denmark and to that end, in October 2012, two existing structures were merged into a Joint Arctic Command which was established in Nuuk, Greenland. -
Naval Craft, Weapon and Sensor Systems
++ I&S NAVAL CRAFT, WEAPON AND SENSOR SYSTEMS Fr. Lürssen Werft Abstract: The article provides an inside view on trends in technology of current and future naval construction programmes as seen by Lürssen, the German shipyard for naval vessels located in Bremen, Germany. The changing operational require- ments recognised in many western European and overseas navies focus on a surface combatant such as a corvette-sized ship with advanced capabilities to meet the spe- cific demands for littoral warfare operations. Based on these new requirements the article outlines technologies in current and future designs for Corvette- and Frigate- sized ships. It includes different types of platforms together with their specific benefits and capabilities for the intended employment in littoral warfare. In addi- tion, measures to reduce the ship’s signatures for enhanced survivability are broadly discussed. With respect to adequate sea-keeping, manoeuvrability, speed and en- durance (properties) in the littoral environment, the article also expands on the de- velopment and characteristics of new propulsion systems emphasising the overall need for a high degree of automation in all system components. The discussion on modern combat system technology once again underlines the need for a modular and flexible system design with open system architecture. The highest possible level of system automation reducing the number of personnel in the CIC and en- suring immediate reaction in a threat scenario is a further topic. Full integration of all sensors and weapons coupled with proven operational software is the essential technical requirement in this context. Finally, the article comments on some eco- nomical aspects of current building philosophies touching thereby on possibilities for crew reduction, costs reduction, potential capabilities for midlife refit, and growth potential.
