<p>"Fits!" - This or something similar is how former and active soldiers know the tone when the "clothing store cops" put a helmet on recruits at the beginning of basic training. Unfitting clothes were tailored, oversizes were delivered later. There was a lot of joking, but it worked. The clothing stores were not men's outfitters, unlike the clothing checkout: there were uniforms, clothing and accessories made of branded goods for self-payers with a clothing allowance - mostly only professional soldiers and later also female professional soldiers. The federal company, which was founded in 2002, hit rock bottom around 2015: no shirts, no shoes and restrictions on purchases. The frustration fitted in with the period of cutbacks and downsizing. In 2015, the federal government took over all the shares of the private partners; since then, LHBw GmbH has been a 1001TP3 federal in-house company. The non-federal defence business was sold in 2016.</p>
<p><strong>Reorganised after frustration</strong></p>
<p>Today, BwBM (Bundeswehr Clothing Management) ensures the supply of uniforms and personal equipment to soldiers and civilian employees of the federal government. The services specified in these contracts are now provided by BwBM following the merger of the old companies LHD and LHBw. Employees are ready to supply the troops at around 85 service locations (SVS). This applies to service clothing and accessories, sportswear and services such as customisation, completion and alteration work.</p>

<p><strong>New location with modern technology and sustainability</strong></p>
<p>A new location has been created in the A27 Park Walsrode. Easily accessible from large locations such as Munster or Wilhelmshaven, a state-of-the-art logistics facility with 56,000 square metres of logistics space, room for 64,000 pallets and around 2,000 square metres of office space has been built on a site area of 92,000 square metres. The location on the A27 motorway provides fast connections to the A7 and A2 motorways as well as access to the cities of Hamburg, Bremen and Hanover. In Walsrode, BwBM carries out tasks such as storage, quality control, textile processing and issuing equipment for around 250,000 soldiers and civilian employees. A laundry is also operated. After around two years of construction, the modern "Bw-Hub" goods and service centre in the Heidekreis district of northern Germany was handed over to Bekleidungsmanagement GmbH (BwBM).</p>

<p><strong>Contact point for 200,000 soldiers</strong></p>
<p>Walsrode is used to uniforms: the main ammunition depot Walsrode-Beetenbrück has existed there for decades, in the neighbourhood of the Fallingbostel, Bergen and Munster sites. What is still missing is an operator for the planned catering facility in one of the outbuildings. After all, according to the local newspapers, the logistics centre will be a port of call for 200,000 soldiers. The centre is set to store equipment for 17,000 navy personnel - will that be enough for the future?</p>

<p>The Drone Alliance was launched in early September 2025 at the first edition of DroneHorizon. DroneHorizon is the flagship event of a multi-year European collaboration between three major innovation centres: DronePort Rotterdam (Port of Rotterdam), The Beacon (Port of Antwerp-Bruges) and Windrove - Hamburg Aviation (Port of Hamburg). The first event brought together more than 300 participants from sixteen countries, including representatives from governments, industry and knowledge institutes.</p>
<p>DroneHorizon will take place alternately, starting in Rotterdam in 2025, Antwerp-Bruges in 2026 and Hamburg in 2027. The focus is on a common mission: to accelerate and advance the development and introduction of autonomous and unmanned systems in critical areas. Defence should also benefit from this, as safe ports are essential for receiving military equipment from allies.</p>
<p>For the Dutch Defence Minister, the lesson from the war against Ukraine is clear: in modern conflicts, the speed of innovation is crucial. The same creativity and speed is therefore needed for European ports and logistics chains, as the armed forces cannot guarantee security alone. Only through cross-border and cross-sector cooperation can we keep Europe strong, secure and prosperous.</p>
<p>DroneHorizon is thus laying the foundations for a European agenda on drones and autonomous systems. The focus is on applications with civil and military benefits, such as harbour logistics, inspections and the protection of critical infrastructure (KRITIS). We can only hope that DroneHorizon will quickly find imitators.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The order volume includes generator sets, propulsion units and systems such as methanol treatment and exhaust gas aftertreatment.</strong></p>
<p>In September 2025, TKMS signed contracts with three suppliers to procure the propulsion technology for the new Polarstern on behalf of the Alfred Wegener Institute. The aim is to utilise technologies that enable particularly low-noise and low-emission research at sea and in the polar regions. CEO Oliver Burkhard emphasised the importance for TKMS: "By selecting the complex propulsion system for the new Polarstern, we are ensuring that we meet the high customer requirements for reliability, environmental protection and sustainability."</p>
<p>Drive technology for sustainable and emission-free research Four generator sets from Wärtsilä were selected for power generation. Two of the engines are dual-fuel-capable, meaning that they can run on methanol as well as conventional diesel. In addition to a sustainable energy supply, a complex battery system will be integrated into the new Polarstern to enable completely emission-free research operations. A highly effective diesel particulate filter cleans the exhaust gases produced during diesel operation before they are treated in an SCR catalytic converter from Wärtsilä. Two rudder propellers from Finnish company Steerprop and a fixed centre propulsion system from Finnish manufacturer Aker Arctic are used for propulsion. The entire propulsion system is designed to fulfil the highest climate and environmental protection requirements. The Polarstern is scheduled to be handed over to the Alfred Wegener Institute research community in 2030.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Scrap from the North and Baltic Seas is also to be destroyed in Bavaria</strong></p>
<p>Rheinmetall is planning to destroy large quantities of old ammunition in the district of Dillingen an der Donau. As part of explosive ordnance clearance projects in the offshore and onshore areas, the Düsseldorf-based technology group intends to destroy not only old munitions from the two world wars, but also so-called "newer stockpiled munitions", as well as taking over the disposal of old stocks from the Bundeswehr and other NATO forces.</p>
<p>Around 1.6 million tonnes of old munitions are suspected at the bottom of the North Sea and Baltic Sea alone. These include artillery shells, ground and sea mines and aerial bombs. In addition, over 2 million tonnes of bombs were dropped over Germany and the occupied territories during the Second World War. In southern Germany alone, more than 20,000 tonnes of old munitions are believed to be left that need to be rendered harmless and disposed of. On the Lerchenberg, which belongs to the Bavarian municipality of Zusamaltheim, Rheinmetall has acquired a 41-hectare site for this purpose. <strong>The facility for destroying old ammunition is scheduled to go into operation at the beginning of 2026</strong>. The property, which also served as a Bundeswehr depot in the past, also has 32 bunkers in which up to 900 tonnes of net explosive mass can be stored.</p>
<p>Rheinmetall acquired the ammunition salvage company Stascheit GmbH, based in Gardelegen, Saxony-Anhalt, back in April 2025. Its main activities include the detection, evaluation, recovery and destruction of explosive ordnance, for example in connection with offshore wind farms. Like the new facility on the Lerchenberg, Stascheit GmbH will also be integrated into the Projects &amp; Services division of Rheinmetall AG.</p><p>Der Beitrag <a href="https://cbmaritim.46181.onlineshophosting.de/en/rheinmetall-builds-plant-for-the-destruction-of-old-ammunition/">Rheinmetall errichtet Anlage zur Vernichtung von Altmunition </a> erschien zuerst auf <a href="https://cbmaritim.46181.onlineshophosting.de/en">marineforum</a>.</p>

<p>The aim was to determine whether the sensor technology could help NATO allies to recognise acts of sabotage on underwater pipelines and data cables at an early stage and respond to them quickly. This research thus supports the development of tools to detect, track, assess and defend against such threats in real time. One important and successfully completed series of tests, for example, involved using ballast anchors to reproduce the acoustic signature of an anchor hitting the seabed. It is now planned to merge this signature with a NATO ship tracking tool, which will then trigger an alarm. "Lost anchors" are currently a common method of destroying marine infrastructure. At least that is what the incidents in recent years show.</p>
<p><strong>Background</strong></p>
<p>The CMRE is a NATO service and has been researching military aspects of the sea from the Mediterranean to the Arctic for more than 65 years, with a focus on waterborne noise. The agency is based in the Italian city of La Spezia, which is also home to the two research vessels. The ships are operated by the Italian Navy.</p>
<p>The "Alliance" (93 metres long, ice-class) was built by the Italian shipyard Fincantieri from 1984 and entered service in 1988. At the time, it was considered to be the quietest motorised surface vessel in the world, ideal for measurements and tests in the field of hydroacoustics.</p>
<p>The "Leonardo" (A 5301, 28 metres long) was built in 2002 at the British shipyard McTay Marine and is propelled by two Schottel rudder propellers. The ship also has a bow thruster. This makes it the smallest research vessel in the world to be equipped with a computer-controlled system for dynamic positioning, i.e. it can automatically maintain its position without anchoring.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Shortly after nine, the doors close. Discretion, no sound bites for the record - Chatham House Rules. What remains is the impression of a scene that wants to pick up speed: the second Bremen dialogue focuses on a topic that is likely to shape tactics, logistics and procurement in equal measure in the future: <em>"AI and autonomy - the future of maritime security"</em>. The format is embedded in the "Maritime Security and Navy 2035+" series organised by the German Maritime Institute (DMI). Around 90 invited experts from the German Armed Forces, industry, research and government departments will be present.</p>
<div id="attachment_47938" style="width: 270px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-47938" class="size-medium wp-image-47938" src="/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-260x300.jpg" alt="Rheinmetall has brought a &quot;pair&quot; of robots..." width="260" height="300" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-260x300.jpg 260w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-887x1024.jpg 887w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-768x887.jpg 768w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-10x12.jpg 10w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-1080x1247.jpg 1080w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-750x866.jpg 750w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901-1140x1316.jpg 1140w, /wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-BreDia-3-e1755352534901.jpg 1150w" sizes="(max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px" /><p id="caption-attachment-47938" class="wp-caption-text">Rheinmetall has brought a "pair" of robots...</p></div>
<p>The fact that the dialogue is continuing is also due to a key organiser: Rheinmetall is taking the initiative for 2026 - a clear signal that impulses are turning into work streams. The 2025 edition was hosted by TKMS/Atlas Elektronik.</p>
<h4><strong>Six workshops, six perspectives</strong></h4>
<p>Six workshop titles are displayed on a screen in the foyer - almost like chapter headings of a common story, six rooms open up different approaches to the same problem. <strong>Sensor and effector networks for unmanned systems</strong> in room A - how do we couple enlightenment, deception and effect in such a way that the composite achieves more than the sum of its parts, right up to the swarm? <strong>Future application scenarios</strong> - From mine defence and submarine hunting to object protection and maritime domain awareness: where do USV/UUV and drones bring the greatest added value, and how do they fit into C2/comms and manned/unmanned teaming? <strong>Technological disruptions</strong> - AI-supported evaluation, digital twins, automation; where could new effectors (including directed energy) shift the rules of the game? <strong>Lessons learnt from current conflicts</strong> - What is resilient (drones, mines, cyber, EW), what is hype, and what can actually be transferred? <strong>AI in operational use</strong> - automatic pattern/target recognition, data fusion close to the situation picture, decision assistance; what are the limits (data quality, explainability, robustness)? In room F <strong>Guidance</strong> rethought: when UxS and AI are on board, leadership changes - role change of officers to system managers, training, human-in/on-the-loop, adaptation of ROE.</p>
<p>Above all, the key question: How are unmanned systems and AI changing tactical and operational command at sea - and what does this mean for the fleet on the way to the Navy 2035+?</p>

<h4><strong>Bremen Industry Quartet</strong></h4>
<p>The event is characterised by a balanced industry presence. Rheinmetall Electronics, TKMS/Atlas Elektronik, NVL and Abeking &amp; Rasmussen will be appearing without product folklore - with complementary role models: Guidance/simulation and effects technology, unmanned underwater and surface platforms, MCM approaches and platform-side preparation for drone and mission modules. The tenor: interfaces, interoperability, IT security, retrofitting capability - so that the fleet does not fail later due to "system edges". Rheinmetall is providing organisational support for the format and is taking it to the next level by taking over the initiative in 2026; TKMS/Atlas will be responsible for the host role in 2025.</p>
<h4><strong>Situation: Opportunities without euphoria</strong></h4>
<p>The security situation provides the focal point. Hybrid threats, vulnerable maritime infrastructure, persistent mine and drone threats - much of this has become more visible. AI-supported sensor technology and networked unmanned systems can increase range, reaction speed and resilience; at the same time, dependencies are growing: Communication, EW resilience, cyber hygiene and data access are becoming hard operational parameters. The dialogue clearly highlights this ambivalence - and thus remains credible.</p>
<p><strong>Leadership in transition</strong></p>
<p>Over the course of the day, a picture of the future bridge emerges: management will become more data-rich, faster - and more selective. AI sorts, prioritises and warns; decisions remain with humans. In practical terms, this means new training modules, more simulator/digital twin components, crew design with system expertise for UxS. Tactical procedures will become more modular, C2 layouts more flexible - with redundancies in the event of disrupted networks. "Kill chains" give way to "sensor-to-decision" networks in which responsibilities are clearly localised.</p>

<h4><strong>Why we need these formats</strong></h4>
<p>Formats such as the Bremen Dialogue create the necessary <em>Trialogue</em> between industry, the navy and defence managers. They synchronise requirements, technical options and procurability at an early stage, shorten iteration loops and build trust between the players who will later share responsibility. This is no substitute for reforming procurement, approval and IT security processes, but it does pave the way for fleet-related piloting, rapid prototyping and modular introduction stages - with clear test corridors, data rooms and prioritisation. This is precisely why the Bremen Dialogue was designed as a working format.</p>
<h4><strong>Marine reference</strong></h4>
<p>Drone capability, digital networking and resilience against hybrid attacks are key elements of our navy's vision. Bremen does not start with abstract "digitalisation", but with concrete implementation paths - from the sensor-effector network to command and training issues. The fact that the DMI set the tone, that around 90 experts attended and that the event will continue in 2026 are reliable indicators of the prevailing momentum - and that it will not stop here.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion</strong>The Bremen Dialogue is a working and trust-based space for the trialogue between industry, the navy and those responsible for armaments. With Rheinmetall as the main organiser and the commitment for 2026, the format has a tailwind. If the lines outlined now lead to trials at sea, incremental introduction and robust standards, this trialogue can make a measurable contribution to accelerating processes - without sacrificing the necessary care.</p>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><strong>The SAiL will take place in Bremerhaven from 13 to 17 August 2025. The international meeting of windjammers is one of the largest maritime events in the world. Ships from over 16 nations take part.</strong></p>
<p>The German Aerospace Centre (DLR) will be presenting its maritime research topics on the Science Mile in the fishing port. It also invites visitors to take part in a variety of hands-on activities.</p>
<p><strong>Hands-on activities for visitors</strong></p>
<p>A variety of activities at the DLR stands offer young and old interested parties the opportunity to experience maritime research at DLR in a playful way. Not only can they steer a boat through a wind farm themselves and secure it against saboteurs, visitors can also slip into the role of security personnel and detect smuggled freight in sea containers using cosmic radiation. In an experiment on the hydrogen process chain, visitors follow the path of hydrogen on a small scale, from electrolysis to transport by ship and pipeline to the launch of a paper rocket.</p>
<p><strong>Virtual space flight in the SPACEBUZZ ONE</strong></p>
<p>One of the highlights is a 15-minute virtual space flight with the SPACEBUZZ ONE. In the rocket-shaped SPACEBUZZ ONE from the German Space Agency at DLR, spectators take a seat on movable seats, put on VR goggles and experience an unforgettable virtual space flight into space. They leave our Earth for 15 minutes and orbit it and the International Space Station ISS. From the perspective of astronauts, they learn a lot about our home planet and man-made climate change before travelling on to the moon and finally landing back on Earth. The flight will be accompanied by avatars of the German ESA astronauts Alexander Gerst and Matthias Maurer. As an ESA reserve astronaut in the flesh, Dr Carmen Possnig will give a talk about her training as an astronaut at SPACEBUZZ ONE on the Science Mile on 14 August 2025.</p>
<p><strong>Research vessel for climate-friendly drives</strong></p>
<p>The DLR is currently pressing ahead with the construction of its planned research vessel. The ship is to serve as a floating laboratory for climate-friendly propulsion technologies. It was commissioned from Lloyd Werft Bremerhaven at the beginning of the year. The first steel plate will be cut at Flensburger Schiffbau Gesellschaft. The ship will be used to test and further develop various propulsion systems, for example based on hydrogen, ammonia, liquefied natural gas (LNG) and batteries. It will be 48 metres long and eleven metres wide. Once completed, the ship will have its home port in Kiel. Visitors can see a model of the research vessel on the Science Mile at the SAiL.</p>
<p><strong>Underwater technology for maritime situational awareness</strong></p>
<p>Against the backdrop of current world events, security research for maritime infrastructures is more important than ever. In the MARLIN (Maritime Awareness Realtime Instrumentation Network) project, for example, DLR is working on a real-time situation picture for harbours. It is intended to help authorities and harbour operators to keep an eye on the situation at all times and to be able to intervene proactively in the event of an incident.</p>
<p><strong>Satellites provide images of the world's oceans</strong></p>
<p>DLR is working on the development of new algorithms that extract up-to-date information on the state of the oceans from radar images from various satellites. The satellite data is received several times a day at the DLR ground station in Neustrelitz. The algorithms developed calculate information on wind, swell, sea ice cover and icebergs from the satellite data within a few minutes and are displayed digitally on a table for visitors to the SAiL.</p>
<p><strong>Maritime test field combines real boat and simulation</strong></p>
<p>The eMIR (e-Maritime Integrated Reference Platform) test field is helping to make the shipping of tomorrow safer and more efficient. The sea area from Brunsbüttel via Cuxhaven and Wilhelmshaven, Helgoland to Emden has been equipped with technology for eMir. The test area offers commercial companies, authorities and research institutes the opportunity to research and develop assistance systems and concepts for autonomous ships. One example of this is the AMISIA project (Advanced Port Maintenance: Intelligent, Sustainable, Innovative and Automated Dredging). DLR has developed concepts for an autonomous dredger together with Niedersachsen Ports.</div>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Port of Hamburg wants to be faster than the European Union. According to the Senator for Economic Affairs, Dr Melanie Leonhard (SPD), cruise ships will have to use the green shore power available in the port from 2027. In the EU, the regulation will not apply until 2030.</strong></p>
<p>The obligation to use shore power applies to all ships that are technically capable of doing so. The cruise terminal in Altona has had a shore power system since 2017. It went into operation in Steinwerder last year and the new cruise terminal in Hafencity will follow this year. Ships are supplied with energy via cable from shore so that they can switch off their on-board generators to avoid ship emissions while they are in port.</p>
<p>The Hamburg Senator for Economic Affairs is not worried that cruise ships will steer clear of Hamburg if shore-side electricity becomes mandatory here earlier than throughout the EU. Almost two thirds of all ships that are capable of using shore-side electricity already use the power supply in Hamburg - and that is without any obligation. However, shore power has so far been considerably more expensive than operating the on-board generators.</p>
<p>It is important for the acceptance of the cruise business in the city. The business should grow, which is precisely why ships should utilise this technology, said the Senator for Economic Affairs in an interview with NDR. From the "Hanseatic Spirit" to the "Mein Schiff 7": since the beginning of the year, cruise ships have drawn power from shore around 80 times in the Port of Hamburg.</p>
<div id="attachment_47815" style="width: 362px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-47815" class="wp-image-47815" src="/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/B2_Hamburger-Kreuzfahrterminals_Quelle_Google-Kartendetails-2025-300x149.png" alt="Hamburg cruise terminals.

Graphic: Google - Map data 2025</p></div>
<p>After many years, the knot has now burst in the cruise segment, said the spokesperson for the economic authority. And if cruisers do not comply with the new rules, there is a threat of sanctions. The senator assumes that so-called compensation payments will then have to be made.</p>
<p>Similar systems are also to be installed for container ships at the Burchardkai and Altenwerder terminals in future. The head of the Hamburg Port Authority (HPA) told NDR that the Port of Hamburg has been a pioneer in Europe for years when it comes to shore-side power. Now, with the completion of the two connection points in Hafencity next year, a functioning shore-side power system could be made available from 2027.</p>
<p>In 2024, however, things sounded different. It was regretted that the existing infrastructure was not being used, as nobody could be forced to do so. The reasons are not entirely clear. For some ships, the connections were too weak, said some skippers off camera. However, the responsible economic authority has always rejected this. According to their findings, the shore power supply meets the current needs of the ships, said the spokesperson for the economic authority.</p>
<p>Another assumption is much more obvious. Firstly, some ships do not have a suitable shore power connection, and secondly, it is generally cheaper to run the ship's own diesel generators than to use the more expensive green electricity. This "shortcoming" is now being remedied with the mandatory connection.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The partnership between Rheinmetall and EuroAtlas was announced on 6 August 2025: The GREYSHARK™ autonomous underwater vehicle is to be integrated into the digital battle architecture <em>Battlesuite™</em> be integrated. The common goal: an operational system for maritime surveillance, infrastructure protection and situational awareness below the military threshold.</p>
<h4>Autonomous, persistent, networked</h4>
<p>GREYSHARK™ is a heavy-duty AUV in the 6 to 8 metre class, weighing between 3 and 4.5 tonnes depending on the variant. The battery-powered "Bravo" version is suitable for short-term missions, while the fuel cell-equipped "Foxtrot" version has an endurance of up to 16 weeks or more than 10,000 nautical miles. With a top speed of over 12 knots, a hydrodynamic hull and ring propeller propulsion, GREYSHARK™ has high manoeuvrability and range.</p>
<p>The sensor system consists of 17 modules, including synthetic aperture sonar (SAS), multi-beam echo sounder, optical, electromagnetic and LiDAR components. An AI-based sensor fusion analyses the situation in real time. Acoustic modems from EvoLogics enable underwater swarm networking. GREYSHARK™ should be able to operate in groups of up to six vehicles in a coordinated manner without surfacing. This is made possible by an acoustic communication system developed by EvoLogics, which is based on dolphin-like sound communication and is designed to enable reliable data exchange as in a mesh network.</p>

<p><strong>Operational scenarios: Protection, reconnaissance, simulation</strong></p>
<p>The system was designed to protect critical infrastructure, monitor sea areas and conduct covert underwater reconnaissance. It can patrol along pipelines, identify potential saboteurs or unknown underwater objects, mark objects and transmit information in real time. GREYSHARK™ can also be used as an "intelligent target" for submarine hunting and mine defence training.</p>
<p>The propulsion concept allows great depths and high persistence. The missions are autonomous, but can be accompanied at any time by a monitoring organisation on land or on board. Thanks to the ITAR exemption, the system can be exported without US authorisation and is interoperable with NATO command structures.</p>
<h4>Rheinmetall's strategic foray into the maritime domain</h4>
<p>The collaboration with EuroAtlas and EvoLogics pursues not only technological but also structural policy objectives. GREYSHARK™ is to become part of a comprehensive, digitally networked coastal defence system that Rheinmetall is building in various partner countries. The Battlesuite™ architecture serves as the backbone for these system-of-systems approaches, which integrate sensors, C2 components, AUVs and support networks.</p>
<p>In addition to system integration and sales, the cooperation framework also includes the joint further development and mission-specific customisation of future GREYSHARK™ variants. The aim is to integrate the platform into coordinated national coastal defence concepts - scalable, interoperable and demand-oriented. The partnership also emphasises a European production and logistics chain: design, construction, operation and return are to be anchored locally in order to ensure sovereignty and security of supply.</p>
<p>With GREYSHARK™ and Battlesuite™, Rheinmetall is tapping into the maritime sector. Previously known primarily for land and air elements, the company is now positioning itself as a provider of networked underwater systems. The goal: a digital, sensor-based situation picture from the depths to the air. With potential for further expansion - co-operations with navies, shipyards or the offshore industry.</p>
<p>GREYSHARK™ therefore has the potential to become a relevant addition to the deployment of modern naval forces, especially for securing maritime critical infrastructures or in the run-up to conventional conflicts.</p>

<h4>Outlook</h4>
<p>In the developing European market for autonomous underwater vehicles, GREYSHARK™ is competing with systems such as the Norwegian HUGIN, the French AUSS, the Swedish Sabertooth and, more recently, with developments from Helsing. The latter's Lura SG-1 is an AI-based glider for tactically flexible coastal missions. The Lura SG-1 is in a significantly different weight class to the GREYSHARK™ and follows a different concept - but both developments demonstrate the trend towards European autonomy under water.</p>
<p>GREYSHARK marks a significant step forward for defence and maritime experts. The system combines modern AUV technology (high autonomy, AI, swarm capability) with practical operational relevance for current threat scenarios in coastal waters and beyond. The integration into Rheinmetall's coastal defence systems and digital networking in the Battlesuite network mean that underwater data can stand on an equal footing with ground, air and surface sensors in the future. With GREYSHARK, EuroAtlas, EvoLogics (Berlin) and Fassmer Werft (Hülle) are also demonstrating the capabilities of the European defence industry in a highly innovative field. Without ITAR restrictions, GREYSHARK™ can be exported to NATO partners and EU states - while at the same time safeguarding key national technologies. For naval planners and political decision-makers, GREYSHARK should therefore not only be a fascinating technology project, but also a concrete tool for ensuring security at sea and under the sea in the 21st century.</p><p>Der Beitrag <a href="https://cbmaritim.46181.onlineshophosting.de/en/greyshark-under-water-a-network-from-rheinmetall/">GREYSHARK™ – Unter Wasser ein Netzwerk von Rheinmetall</a> erschien zuerst auf <a href="https://cbmaritim.46181.onlineshophosting.de/en">marineforum</a>.</p>
