German Navy released "Force Structure Goals 2035+".

"Given the new importance of deterrence and defense, the German naval forces must adapt to technical progress. This means comprehensive entry into unmanned systems and artificial intelligence."

Basically a refocus on NATO vs. hunting pirates.
>be g*rm*n
>see major land war develop in your own continent
>start building boats
It helps the NATO to dominate in the Baltic Sea, Northern Sea and the Northern Atlantic.
Northern Sea and Baltic Sea are direct threats to NATO, while Northern Atlantic is crucial for getting stuff from the USA to Europe.
baltic sea is functionally surrounded by nato and even land based missiles are enough
as for norther sea and norhter atlantic, dominate against who? The irish navy?
Why do you think Russia has a massive submarine fleet?
because they love sucking cocks, which is the reason for most things russian
I honestly don't know why they operate undersea death traps.
assuming that Russia is going to finally fade into North Korea tier irrelevance, everyone on earth is going to need botes to fight China
German Navy returning to refocus on inherent NATO tasks will also help any deployment in the Pacific - even though it would be somewhat ad-hoc.
Though Germany is planning to establish a logistics hub in Singapore for the Navy.
Don't act like other euros don't pull the same nonsense.
guilty, with finlands navy building some dummy big ships for our little puddle
Worked in WW1
Everyone in their mother will be preparing for a land war. Germans are crafty - nobody will expect them to prepare for a SEA war.
It’s for 2035+ you fucking dumbfuck or do you expect Bakhmut is still going on in 2035?
Yes
Underrated
>major land war develop in your own continent
A major land war that destroys the only enemy left.
Carrier strike group when
Why does Germany even have boats when they should be a land power? is it autism?
Why would a country that contains a coastline, a few islands, and a company like ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems not have a navy.
Also a country that will operate as logistics hub for the USA kinda want to secure the lines of communication to the USA
what islands ? Krauts are landlocked morons
Amrum, Sylt and Helgoland to name three of them.
>Krauts are landlocked
Are you genuinely retarded or just pretending?
>Krauts are landlocked morons
Posts like this are why I don't take any mutt opinions about things outside of their border seriously.
>mutt opinions
oxymoron
Ironically for providing UK and France with ships to protect their aircraft carriers.
No, actually un-ironically, as per NATO doctrines
>unmanned systems and artificial intelligence
>future of warfare is AI drones and AI boats
I don't know how I feel about this.
Any cool shit like new drones or something like that?
Yes, this is one of the main focuses of the new Navy plan.
Then they should invest more into nuclear propulsion if they ever want to fight the chinks, their conventional subs are useless for any kind of future war in the pacific
Tell that to all nations operating a crazy amount of conventional submarines in the Pacific
So germs has a coastline in the pacific now ? Or they would still have to sail thousands of miles to get there, retard ? There’s a reason why Aussie wants nuclear boats, even though they literally border the pacific.
yes, you can move a conventional submarine anywhere you want
>wants to join the big boys party in the pacific
>is literally on the other side of the world
>muh extremely limited endurance AIP is better than nuclear boats
Jeez no wonder you retarded germs voted to shut down nuclear plants and chose to rely on vatmorons gas.
Btw, you always suck at naval warfare, so leave the fighting at sea to your Anglo masters
>extremely limited endurance
Yes, it can only spend weeks between recharging batteries and months at sea. EXTREMELY LIMITED!
>better than nuclear boats
What's it like, flailing at strawmen like that?
>Tell that to all nations operating a crazy amount of conventional submarines in the Pacific
Because they can't afford to develop nuclear boats and can't buy nuclear boats from someone else.
Have you ever looked at a map of the pacific? It's prime conventional submarine territory.
By the way, Germany still uses a single Barbe-class utility landing craft called Lachs ... which was build in the 1960s.

The Baltic has brackish water, meaning that things rust much slower. The difference in rust attack between east coast Sweden and west coast Sweden is huge.
Russia has a ship that was commissioned in the...Imperial Russian Navy. Never mothballed, still in active service. Named the Kommuna I think.
Greatest navy on the old continent.
Are they going to scrap a newish F125 or why is it down to 3? Also i heard they want to built 2 carriers together with the netherlands
>Are they going to scrap a newish F125 or why is it down to 3?
They will most likely run them until the MLU would take.
And the Joint Strike ships are pretty much dead because new refocus on NATO
>Also i heard they want to built 2 carriers together with the netherlands
pls be tru
Its against the laws of the Universe for Germany to own a Aircraft carrier
It will be solved once they fund an EU Navy carrier.
They will build this instead
> at least 90 VLS cells
> over 10000t
The Dutch side is claiming that Germany wants to operate AEGIS for their F127 class ships.

Only 15 uboats? I am disappointed
