  • Unmanned Surface
    lcdr Rafał MIĘTKIEWICZ PhD Polish Naval Academy POSSIBLE APPLICATTIONS OF USVs IN POLISH NAVY Key words: unmanned surface vehicles, Polish Navy modernization, maritime security applications, maritime critical infrastructure protection, maritime security, unmanned platforms, unmanned maritime vehicles, Abstract: Polish Navy modernization process is underway. Year 2015 was vital because of two historical events. Newly build corvette (Gawron Class) and minehunter (Kormoran II Class) were launched in Polish shipyards. Naval modernization program consist of many aspects and is implemented in Polish industry. Simultaneously, couple of programs focused on unmanned vehicles are on track (aerial, surface and underwater). One of them is Buried Mines (BURMIN) program as a part of European Unmanned Systems for Mine Counter Measures and other naval applications (UMS) organized by European Defense Agency (EDA), together with sufficient players of the branch like Thales (leader), Atlas, RMA, TNO. WTD-71, Atlas Elektronik, Fraunhofer, IPHT, CTM (Poland). Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) become increasingly popular in military and maritime security applications. With growing role of shallow and confined waters in maritime tactics some specific threats start play significant role (asymmetric threats, sea mine, submarines). Polish Navy is engaged in Multinational Capability Development Campaign (MCDC) project dedicated to Joint and Combined Operations in and from Confined Waters. Ideas proposed in the paper represent the author’s personal point of view. Introduction Project of minehunter construction Kormoran II assumes the purchase of three units build in Gdansk. With a magnetic steel hull construction the new MCM vessel will be equipped with, wide variety of high specialized outfit contain inter alia, AUV - Hugin 1000, Self-Propelled Variable Depth Sonar (SPVDS) - Double Eagle Mk III, ROV - Morswin, one shot disposal system – Głuptak, Side Scan Sonar – Klein together with Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV).

For me it is a huge honour and a great pleasure to welcome such a distinguished group of guests in the State Parliament of Schleswig-Holstein to commemorate this very important milestone for our think-tank here in Kiel. Looking back, for what reason was the COE CSW incorporated here in Germany and why particularly in Kiel? Well, for decades the German Navy and especially the Flotilla 1 in Kiel has accumulated a high and specifi c maritime warfare competence by operating in coastal waters, especially in the Baltic and the North Sea. With the aim to make these tactical and operational skills available to NATO allies, and to ensure state-of-the-art operational concepts, the COE CSW was established in 2006 with the formal inauguration in 2007. In October 2008, Greece, the Netherlands, Turkey, and Germany signed a “Memorandum of Understanding”, which defi ned the function, organisation, staffi ng and funding.

  • Znalazło Szerokie Zastosowanie Na Okrętach Wojennych, Z Jednym Wyjątkiem: Bulwiastym Dzio- Bem
    SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL OF POLISH NAVAL ACADEMY ZESZYTY NAUKOWE AKADEMII MARYNARKI WOJENNEJ 2018 (LIX) 3 (214) DOI: 10.2478/sjpna-2018-0016 AN UNDERWATER SPOILER ON A WARSHIP: WHY, WHEN AND HOW? Bruno Bouckaert Hull Vane B.V., Nude 46, 6702 DM, Wageningen, The Netherlands; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT There are a lot of energy saving devices for ships on the market, but few have seen wide adop- tion on naval ships, with one exception: the bulbous bow. The bulbous bow was developed for naval ships in the early 20th century and is now widespread on a variety of ship designs. Many have wondered if the effect of the bulbous bow — reducing the resistance of a ship by reducing the bow wave — could be replicated somehow at the stern — by reducing the stern wave. This is exactly what is done by a novel and patented energy saving device called Hull Vane ®. Invented by Dutch hydrodynamicist Dr Peter van Oossanen for an America’s Cup sailing yacht in the early 21st century, research over the years has shown that this wing-shaped appendage works best on ships that combine a relatively high displacement with a relatively high top speed requirement — even if most sailing hours are done at half speed. Examples are certain offshore vessels, superyachts, patrol vessels and naval ships. On offshore patrol vessels, the re- sistance reduction from the Hull Vane® ranges typically from 10 to 20% over the entire useful speed range. In this paper, the working principles of the Hull Vane® will be described to give a better under- standing of the device.

  • Conference Program
    U.S. Naval Academy Leadership Conference Leader Development: The Cycle of Success January 30-February 2, 2011 Annapolis, Maryland 2 Welcome The United States Naval Academy, the Department of Leadership, Ethics and Law, along with the Hart Foundation and the USNA Class of ’38, are proud to sponsor the 2011 Leadership Conference at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland January 30-February 2, 2011. Mission Statement The U.S. Naval Academy Leadership Conference's mission is to bring together the best minds in the practice and study of leadership to exchange ideas, experiences, and methodologies with both military and civilian undergraduate students of leadership. Background Since 1984, the Naval Academy has hosted an annual leadership conference for senior cadets and midshipmen from each of the service academies. In 2002, the confer- ence expanded to include students from civilian universities and broadened its scope to include leadership topics relevant to government, business, and academia, as well as the military. Made possible through the generous support of the Class of ’38 and Mitch and Linda Hart, the USNA Leadership Conference now includes more than 200 participants from over 40 military and civilian colleges. In 2006, the Leadership Conference incorpo- rated a student generated and professionally published conference report that addressed key issues related to the conference theme. In recent years, the Leadership Conference has varied presentation formats and increased the amount of small group interaction and discussion in order to foster learning experiences among attendees. Theme for 2011 “Leader Development: The Cycle of Success” The success of any organization depends on a host of complex and dynamic factors, yet leader development, often overlooked or disregarded, plays a critical role.

  • Visionary Leadership Navigating Through Uncharted Waters
    U.S. Naval Academy Leadership Conference Visionary Leadership Navigating Through Uncharted Waters January 29-February 1, 2012 Annapolis, Maryland This Year's Conference is Dedicated to the Memory of Rear Admiral Maurice H. Rindskopf, USN (Ret.) “Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time; Footprints, that perhaps another, Sailing o’er life’s solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again.” By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ear Admiral Maurice H. Rindskopf, USN (Ret.), was born on 27 September 1917 in Brooklyn, RNY. At the age of 16, he graduated from Poly Prep Country Day School, immediately traveling to Annapolis for induction into the Naval Academy Class of 1938. As a midshipman, Admiral Rindskopf demonstrated leadership in the classroom and on the athletic fields, graduating in the top 7% of his class and competing on the 1938 National Championship lacrosse team. After graduation from the Naval Academy, Admiral Rindskopf was assigned to serve two years aboard USS COLORADO (BB-45). He then attended Submarine School in New London, CT, where he met and married his wife, Sylvia Lubow. Graduating near the top of his class, he served in R-4 (SS-81), before being ordered to commission USS DRUM (SS-228) in Portsmouth, NH, a month before the declaration of World War II. He served on the DRUM for three years, complet- ing nine war patrols as torpedo, gunnery and then executive officer, and two patrols as commanding officer, the youngest to command a Fleet submarine (age 26).
