The focus of the Baltic Sea: German Navy is preparing for Russian tensions!

Kiel, Deutschland - The location in the Baltic Sea is heading. Russia's marine is more active and the German armed forces are under pressure. Flottillenadmiral Christian Walter Meyer, who has been in office since November, comments on the challenges and the future willingness of the Navy. According to an interview with KN Online the German Navy has to be warfare by 2029. This is a central demand for the inspectors.

With increasing pressure on the part of Russia, not only the German Navy, but also NATO partners observe the activities in the Baltic Sea area. Reports about Russian drones that spy on NATO fleet associations intensify the distrust that has grown since the beginning of the Ukraine secretary. The NATO minuch association under German leadership, which operated on international waters in front of Poland, was recently persecuted by Russian drones while heading Gdansk, such as world reports.

technological developments and challenges

A new concept for improving military presence includes the use of modern technologies such as drones. Denmark prepares large unmanned systems for sea space monitoring. These are intended to support the German Navy in the control of the sea, but are not a complete replacement for manned units. Initial trials of the drone technology within the navy are already underway, such as Bundeswehr

Flotillenadmiral Meyer emphasizes that the situation has improved compared to earlier. A current situation is created at the naval mando. Nevertheless, there are construction sites, especially with regard to the infrastructure in the bases and problems such as recruitment of new staff remain. The current members often choose to stay in the navy while new recruits are rare.

defense measures and security

The defense against the attempts to spy Russia is a central concern. In an incident, an association of NATO boats, which consisted of ships under different flags, was temporarily protected by the "Moselle" against the drone-friendly Russian ships. Frigate captain Mario Reavest describes the use of drones by Russia as an unfriendly act, which further heats up the tensions between the marine.

Another central problem is the disturbance of the GPS system, which has been determined in this area since the beginning of the Ukraine secretary. These disorders represent a serious threat to the navigation of the NATO boats, which can be managed by redundant information.
