NATO Admirale in Hamburg: Strategies for a safe sea area!
Hamburg becomes the center of the NATO strategy!On November 5th and 6th, 2024, high-ranking admirals from the NATO admiral body CHANCOM will gather in the Hanseatic city to discuss the pressing maritime challenges in the strategically important maritime area of the North Sea and the English Channel. This region is becoming increasingly important, especially in the context of the current security situation. It is the gateway to the Baltic Sea and plays a central role in national and alliance defense.
The decisive discussions take place in a moment that is characterized by stronger maritime cooperation between the European nations. The Chancom members, to which the naval cheers from Great Britain, France, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands belong, agree on the conviction that their security interests are inextricably linked. This fusion of defense strategies is crucial to guarantee the safety of shipping in the English Channel and beyond. In extreme cases, troops and material must also be escorted by the German Navy to strengthen the Allied presence in Europe.
Focus on unmanned systems!
A central theme of the conference will be the "use and combat of unmanned systems", which is of the utmost importance for the future alignment of the navy from 2035.Warships should be able to conduct naval warfare in the North Atlantic in a multidimensional manner!The use of unmanned systems is seen as key to covering large geographical areas and improving survivability. Given the particular threat situation in the Baltic Sea, these technologies have essential advantages. Military leaders must also address the availability and cost-effectiveness of these systems.
The Inspector of the Navy, Vice Admiral Jan C. Kaack, chairs the event and brings over 60 years of expertise to this proven consultation body. The gathering in Hamburg represents not only an important step in military planning, but also a strong signal of unity among NATO countries in times of global uncertainty.
