  • Turkish Navy Programmes Transformation of a Regional Naval Power
    NAVAL PLANS TURKISH NAVY PROGRAMMES TRANSFORMATION OF A REGIONAL NAVAL POWER As the Turkish Naval Force (TNF) updates its fleet with new domestically built frigates, corvettes, patrol craft, landing ships, and sub­ marines, the country's ship­ building industry is undergoing a radical o'ansfonnation (seejiglll'e 1), For the first time, Turkish yards are being tasked with building highly sophisticated, modern warships in num­ bers. As domestic naval construction capabilities ramp up to the anticipated TF -2000 Air Defence Frigate, industry will have to provide designers, engi­ neers, and skilled workers in the highly complex systems integration and con­ struction techniques necessitated by the advanced designs scheduled to enter the fleet during the next 15 years. ENTHUSIASM FLOATS .. , The TNF will be one of the best·equipped sea services in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region. Technological and capability gaps are being filled by new acquisitions. During the Cold War years of the 20th CentUlY, Turkey was a key ally in the NATO southeastern strategy of bottling up the Russian Navy within the Black Sea.

  • The Republic of Korea: a Defence and Security Primer
    Today, the Republic of Korea (ROK) is a global economic and Primer Security and A Defence Korea: of The Republic industrial powerhouse and is identified as a world leader in ship- building, motor manufacturing and information technology. South Korea has also developed into a vibrant democracy. Despite all its successes the country remains locked in a deadly stand-off with its northern neighbour. Almost 60 years after the end of the Korean War, issues concerning defence and security remain of pri- mary societal and political importance in South Korea. This report attempts to summarise the ROK’s defence and security sectors. In four chapters the report addresses security policy and politics, defence reform, defence industry and R&D. Main findings in the report are that South Korea’s defence and security sector is in a period of general transition and change. Threat perceptions and the fragility of security on the Korean Peninsula have intensified over the past few years. Political reconsiderations of South Korea’s security and defence policies have raised contentions over the direction of its defence reform process, and how it will be implemented. South Korea’s defence industrial and R&D sector is actively seeking increased independence and profitability. It is however limited in how it can pursue these structural changes. This volume is published as part of the Asia Security Studies programme.

  • Navy News Week 11-5
    NAVY NEWS WEEK 11-5 15 March 2018 Indian Navy’s MILAN ’18: Towards Steadier Waters in Indo-Pacific C Uday BhaskarUpdated: 07.03.18 India is hosting its week-long biennial naval engagement, MILAN 2018, in Port Blair on Tuesday, 6 March, and 16 navies from across the Indo-Pacific oceanic continuum will be a part of this demonstration of maritime camaraderie. The first MILAN (meaning ‘get together’ in Hindi) was held in 1995, and emerged from a consensus that the Indian Ocean Region (IOR), with its disparate nations – big and small – could be envisioned as a community with a common objective; this being the security and stability of the extended regional maritime domain. Towards Maritime Good-Order & Steady Regional Ties One recalls the concept of an Indian Ocean ‘panchayat’ being mooted by the Indian Navy in the early 1990s at an international conference held in Delhi and this later took the shape of the first ‘MILAN’ in 1995, where four regional navies were hosted by India in Port Blair. Over the years, ‘MILAN’ has acquired a distinctive profile, in that it brings together a wide swathe from across the maritime arc encompassing Asia and the eastern seaboard of Africa for a week of professional engagement, sports fixtures and deliberations at the flagship seminar that the tri-service Andaman & Nicobar Command hosts. Regional geo-politics cannot be divorced from such events and given the sequence of developments related to the Maldives over the last few months, the island nation has conveyed its inability to join ‘MILAN 2018’. However, the other nations include Australia, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, New Zealand, Oman, Vietnam, Thailand, Tanzania, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Kenya and Cambodia.

  • Why Australia Should Go with Germany for Its Future Submarine Project | the Diplomat 02.03.16 09:31
    Why Australia Should Go With Germany for Its Future Submarine Project | The Diplomat 02.03.16 09:31 Organisationsmanagement Experte in Organisationsmanagement. 96.3% Erfolgsquote. Seit 25 Jahren. Why Australia Should Go With Germany for Its Future Submarine Project The German offering for Australia’s next-generation submarine requirement is unprecedented. By Heiko Borchert March 02, 2016 A German designed Type 214 submarine at the HDW Australia is in the midst of evaluating its strategic partner for building yard in Kiel, 2008. SEA1000, the Future Submarine Project. As Andrew Davies, Image Credit: GDK via Wikimedia Commons director of the Australia Strategic Policy Institute, wrote, this is a “wonderful case study of defense acquisition” spanning “every aspect of defense decision-making from long-term strategic crystal ball gazing, including the possible impact of future technologies, through military strategy development and force structuring, all the way to robust politics of shipyard jobs.” The scene is set with Germany, France, and Japan as the three contenders, and China as the country to be hedged, with reports by colleagues of the former Prime Minister Tony Abbott claiming that Australia’s alliance partner, the United States, seemingly prefers that Canberra choose Tokyo’s offering. Australia made it clear from the outset that U.S. interference with its decision was unwanted. Despite that, the United States plays an important role as the “strategic integrator.” Every contender needs to have U.S. combat and weapons systems, thus equalizing all offers with regard to key technical parameters relevant for the submarine’s combat value. This, in turn, puts the focus on the politico-economic package as the main differentiator.

  • Japan Versus Europe: the Quest to Build Australia's Future Submarine
    STRATEGIC STRATEGIC INSIGHTS Japan versus Europe The quest to build Australia’s future submarine 103 Kym Bergmann, Peter Briggs, Andrew Davies, Julian Kerr, Chris Mather, Hans J Ohff, Terence Roach, Benjamin Schreer, Tony Shepherd, Geoff Slocombe, Mark Thomson, Hugh White Introduction Andrew Davies The building of Australia’s fleet of future submarines is likely to be the largest defence program in this country’s history. It will cost tens of billions of dollars and will run for decades. So it’s little wonder that it’s a recurring topic of interest on the pages of ASPI’s blog The Strategist. Our contributors continue to examine the topic from all angles, and this Strategic Insights collects selected pieces from the past twelve months. The Future Submarine Project is a wonderful case study of defence acquisition. Because of its scale and time frame, it spans every aspect of defence decision-making from long-term strategic crystal ball gazing, including the possible impact of future technologies, through military strategy development and force structuring, all the way to robust politics of shipyard jobs. Collins class submarine. Photo courtesy Department of Defence. February 2016 2 Japan versus Europe: The quest to build Australia’s future submarine This report is divided into four sections. In the first, the subject is the future strategic and technological environment. Benjamin Schreer surveys China’s growing undersea warfare capability, and argues that the United States and its allies are going to have to rise to the challenge with sophisticated capabilities of their own. Andrew Davies investigates the prospect of submarines becoming obsolete due to emerging technologies, concluding that life underwater will get harder, but that submarines will continue to be an important part of the ADF’s force structure.
