Keel laying for newbuilding 784 The first module of the newbuilding number 784, weighing more than 154 tonnes, was lowered onto the pier by crane in a traditional keel laying ceremony at Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft (FSG).

The name Anschütz has stood for expertise in ship navigation for over a hundred years. Now the Kiel-based company has a new owner in DMB Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH. Raytheon Anschütz GmbH will become Anschütz GmbH in the future.

Anschütz is thus returning to a German owner and to the traditional company name with which the company has produced numerous innovations since 1905 and has become a well-known name in the German market.

The central topic was the importance of the German, but also American, Russian and Chinese navies.
