Strategic Direction of the Future Submarine Program
(Source: Australian Dept. of Defence; issued Feb 20, 2015)
Today the Government announces the acquisition strategy for the Future Submarine Program. This announcement sets out further details of the competitive evaluation process that will be undertaken by the Department of Defence.

Submarines are an essential component of Australia’s naval capability and the Government will ensure that the future submarine provides the best possible capability and value for money for Australian taxpayers while maximising the involvement of Australian industry.

Submarines are the most complex, sensitive and expensive Defence capability acquisition a Government can make.

Australia’s national security and $1.6 trillion economy depend on secure sea lanes. We need the best possible submarine to protect our trade and support our maritime security.

It must be delivered in time to avoid a capability gap in the mid-2020s when the Collins Class submarine is scheduled to be retired from service. The decisions we make on the Future Submarine Program will determine what kind of capability we have to defend Australia and Australian interests into the 2040s and beyond.

The process outlined by the Government today provides a pathway for Australian industry to maximise its involvement in the program, whilst not compromising capability, cost, program schedule or risk.

The Government expects that significant work will be undertaken in Australia during the build phase of the future submarine including combat system integration, design assurance and land based testing. This will result in the creation at least 500 new high-skill jobs in Australia, the majority of which will be based in South Australia.

The Future Submarine Program is the largest Defence procurement program in Australia’s history and represents an investment in the order of $50 billion in Australia’s security. These costs will be subject to refinement through the competitive evaluation process. A significant proportion of this investment will be spent in Australia during the lifetime of the future submarine.

Successive governments have used various kinds of competitive evaluation processes for major Defence capability procurements.

As part of this competitive evaluation process, the Department of Defence will seek proposals from potential partners for:

a) Pre-concept designs based on meeting Australian capability criteria;

b) Options for design and build overseas, in Australia, and/or a hybrid approach;

c) Rough order of magnitude (ROM) costs and schedule for each option; and

d) Positions on key commercial issues, for example intellectual property rights and the ability to use and disclose technical data.

In addition to this – and on the advice of Defence – the Government has endorsed a set of key strategic requirements for our future submarines:

a) Range and endurance similar to the Collins Class submarine;

b) Sensor performance and stealth characteristics that are superior to the Collins Class submarine; and

c) The combat system and heavyweight torpedo jointly developed between the United States and Australia as the preferred combat system and main armament.

Defence advises that for Australian industry to have the best opportunity to maximise their involvement in the Future Submarine Program, it needs to work with an international partner.

Based on work completed by Defence, France, Germany, and Japan have emerged as potential international partners. All three countries have proven submarine design and build capabilities and are currently producing submarines.

France, Germany and Japan will be invited to participate in this competitive evaluation process (Emphasis added—Ed.) that will assess their ability to partner with Australia to develop a Future Submarine that meets our capability requirements.

The Department of Defence will invite potential international partners to seek opportunities for Australian industry participation in the Future Submarine Program.

The competitive evaluation process will help the Government balance important considerations including capability, cost, schedule, and risk. Interoperability with our alliance partner, the United States, will also be a fundamental consideration.

The competitive evaluation process will take around ten months, after which an international partner will be selected for Australia’s Future Submarine Program. Further details about Australian industry involvement are also expected to be known at that point.

The competitive evaluation process will ensure that capability, cost, schedule, and key strategic considerations, along with Australian industry involvement, are carefully and methodically considered, and avoid unnecessary delays to the Future Submarine Program.

The Department of Defence will soon be holding industry briefings to inform Australian industry about the process and how they can engage with potential international partners.

An expert advisory panel will also be appointed to oversee the competitive evaluation process. Further details about this will be announced once individual appointments are confirmed.

Australia bota el primero de los destructores diseñados por Navantia



Citar
(defensa.com) Este pasado sábado, 23 de mayo, tuvo lugar en Adelaide el acto de botadura del HMAS Hobart , el primero de los tres destructores del programa AWD (Air Warfare Destroyer) basados en el diseño de las fragatas F-100 que Navantia construyó para la Armada española. La ceremonia contó con la presencia del presidente del astillero español, José Manuel Revuelta. (..)

 El programa de destructores antiaéreos clase Hobart, denominado Sea 4000 , comprende la fabricación en Australia de tres destructores AWD. Navantia forma parte, junto a Raytheon Australia, el Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO), y el astillero australiano ASC de AWD Alliance, el consorcio elegido para la fabricación de los tres destructores. Estos se basan en el diseño de las última de las fragatas F-100, la F-105 "Cristóbal Colón", que introdujo mejoras sobre las cuatro fragatas anteriores. (...)

Con un presupuesto de 8.000 millones de dólares,  se trata del programa de defensa más amplio y complejo de la historia de Australia. Está dotado del sistema Aegis, de la norteamericana Lockheed-Martin, que es capaz de monitorizar hasta 100 objetivos aéreos a distancias de hasta 250 millas. (...)

Launch of the First Australian Navy Hobart Class Air Warfare Destroyer
 
In an important milestone for the Air Warfare Destroyer (AWD) program, the first of three destroyers, Hobart, was launched alongside the Port River wharf in Adelaide today. This is a key achievement for the program and a big step towards the delivery of three highly capable warships to the Royal Australian Navy. The second destroyer Brisbane — now in an advanced state of fit-out with more than half of the blocks already consolidated on the hardstand.


The first Australian Navy Hobart Class Air Warfare Destroyer has been launched on May 23 (Picture: Tom Huntley)
          
Once fully operational, the warships will have a combination of great endurance, offensive and defensive weapons, flexibility and versatility. Hobart, Brisbane and Sydney will assume a leading command and control role with the Australian Defence Force and Coalition forces capable of carrying out multi-mission operations.

The Air Warfare Destroyer (AWD) program is one of the largest and most complex Defence projects ever undertaken in Australia and has been instrumental in building a strong shipbuilding capability in Australia.

The Hobart has reached this milestone through Government and industry collaboration involving an Australian workforce of some 3000 people. This includes the AWD Alliance made up of lead shipbuilder ASC, mission systems integrator Raytheon Australia and the Department of Defence, including the Royal Australian Navy.

The program has also been supported the United States Navy, Navantia, Lockheed Martin, Forgacs, BAE Systems and MG Engineering.

As Hobart moves into this next phase, the second and third destroyers, Brisbane and Sydney, will benefit from the AWD Alliance applying lessons learned.

This experience will be drawn on should a continuous build strategy, with a regular pace of delivering new warships, be feasible.

An enterprise-level naval shipbuilding plan would provide for the long-term future of the Australian naval shipbuilding industry and avoid the peaks and troughs we are experiencing – and have experienced in the past.

With Hobart in the water, the second destroyer, Brisbane, can soon take its place on the hardstand to undergo final block consolidation, and the keel for the third destroyer, Sydney, will be laid.

The AWDs are being built for Australia’s specific defence needs and will provide a significant increase in Australia’s defence capabilities. The AWDs will provide greater protection for ADF personnel by providing air defence for accompanying ships as well as land forces and infrastructure on nearby coastal areas. The AWDs will also provide self-protection against attacking missiles and aircraft.

The Aegis Weapon System incorporating the state-of-the-art phased array radar, AN/ SPY 1D(V), in combination with the SM-2 missile, will provide an advanced air defence system capable of engaging enemy aircraft and missiles at ranges in excess of 150 kilometres.

The AWDs will also carry a MH-60R Seahawk ‘Romeo’ naval combat helicopter for surveillance and response to support key warfare areas. The surface warfare function will include long range anti-ship missiles and a naval gun capable of firing extended range munitions in support of land forces. The AWDs will also be able to conduct Undersea Warfare and will be equipped with modern sonar systems, decoys and surface-launched torpedoes.

Coupled with an array of close-in defensive weapons, all of these capabilities ensure the AWDs have the layered defensive and offensive resources required to win the battle against 21st century conventional and asymmetric threats.
The Defence team is led by the AWD Program Office in the Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO), which retains overall responsibility for the project management and delivery of the three Air Warfare Destroyers. The DMO, through the Minister for Defence, is responsible to the people of Australia to ensure that the future AWDs are delivered to the RAN on time, on budget and to the required capability.

Citar
The Royal Australian Navy (RAN) has commissioned its 725 Squadron as a training formation for the service's MH-60R Seahawk 'Romeo' anti-submarine warfare (ASW) helicopters.

The squadron was commissioned by Defence Minister Kevin Andrews on 11 June at Naval Air Station HMAS Albatross in Nowra.

Australia has acquired 24 MH-60Rs under an AUD3.2 billion (USD2.5 billion) project to replace the RAN's 16 S-70B-2 Seahawks in ASW and anti-surface warfare roles. The RAN has so far accepted 11 aircraft into service.

"This is a significant increase in technology and capability for the navy and the helicopters are equipped with a sophisticated sensor suite, torpedoes, and air-to-surface missiles," said Andrews in a speech to mark the squadron's commissioning.

According to IHS Jane's Fighting Ships , the MH-60R has an operational speed of 180 kt and a service ceiling of 10,000 ft. The aircraft can attain a range of 450 n miles.

Operational support for aircraft, which are scheduled to achieve initial operating capability at sea in August, will be provided by 816 Squadron, which currently operates the navy's S-70B-2 helicopters.

RAN's second Canberra-class LHD sails for first sea trials

Citar
The Royal Australian Navy's (RAN's) second Canberra-class landing helicopter dock (LHD) vessel, the future HMAS Adelaide , has left BAE Systems' shipyard in Williamstown to begin its first sea trials, a company official told IHS Jane's on 23 June.

The 230 m vessel left on the 17 June and is heading towards Sydney. During the trials process, it will conduct various tasks under a number of different ship configurations and scenarios, including at different water depths. " Adelaide will return to Williamstown in mid-July and conduct a second set of sea trials in August before we prepare it for a handover to the RAN in late 2015," said Kaye Noske, BAE Systems' senior communications manager.

   ASPI report calls for sea change in Australian approach to amphibious warfare  

http://www.janes.com/article/53322/aspi ... us-warfare

 
Citar
The Australian Defence Force  (ADF) currently lacks the tradition, culture and organisational expertise needed to maintain and employ a world-class amphibious warfare capability, according to a new study by a leading think tank.

  The paper, released by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute  (ASPI) on 29 July, comes just nine months after the commissioning of the 27,800-tonne helicopter landing dock (LHD) HMAS  Canberra, the Royal Australian Navy  (RAN's] largest-ever ship, and a few months before the anticipated commissioning of Canberra's sister ship, HMAS  Adelaide .

 While acknowledging an impressive amount of work over several years by individuals and organisations across the ADF to facilitate institutional change, the Department of Defence (DoD) still faces critical gaps in the planning and personnel needed to fully exploit the ships' potential, the study said.

  "Australia is a maritime country without a maritime  culture, and the AD, in particular the army, doesn't have one either", the study says (....)
