- Netherlands, RI maintain naval ties
The Royal Netherlands Navy (RNN) is committed to increasing cooperation with the Indonesian Navy in various sectors, Navy chief of staff Adm. Marsetio said on Thursday.
“In the education sector, we are sending a number of officers to study with the RNN,” he told The Jakarta Post after receiving the Prins Hendrik medal of honor on behalf of the Navy, in honor of the cooperation between the two navies.
“We also have cooperation in the procurement of new warships such as the SIGMA corvettes and a guided-missile destroyer escort [PKR].”
The medal was handed over by the RNN commander Vice Adm. Matthieu Borsboom on the KRI Ahmad Yani-351 which was berthed at the Madura Pier in the Eastern Fleet headquarters in Surabaya.
Also attending the ceremony was Dutch Ambassador to Indonesia Tjeerd de Zwaan and Eastern Fleet commander Rear Adm. Agung Pramono. The Prins Hendrik medal of honor has been awarded since 1998 to individuals or institutions who have made an exceptional contributions to the RNN. “I hope the cooperation between TNI AL [Navy] and the RNN can thrive and be constructive and increase in the future,” Marsetio said.
He added that Navy was the second institution to receive the medal after the British Royal Navy, which received it in 2010.
“Indonesia is the second country to get the medal with the UK the first. This is natural because the UK and the Netherlands are neighbors.”
Meanwhile, Borsboom said the RNN had been cooperating with the Navy for almost 30 years with significant benefits.
There are a number of Indonesian loan words that are still in use in the RNN such as “barang” (goods), “baru” (new) and “Atjeh jasje” (Aceh military coat). On Wednesdays, Indonesian-style dinners are served aboard all Dutch warships.
The KRI Ahmad Yani-351 is the leading vessel of six Ahmad Yani-class frigates. The warships were formerly Van Speijk-class frigates of the RNN.
The Navy operates four Diponegoro-class SIGMA corvettes and a SIGMA PKR is currently under construction by Dutch shipbuilder Damen Group with the involvement of state-owned shipyard PT PAL.
Before the medal award ceremony, Borsboom led a ceremony at the Kembang Kuning Ereveld cemetery to commemorate the Battle of the Java Sea, which took place on Feb. 27, 1942. The battle saw the annihilation of the Allied forces by an Imperial Japanese fleet, which allowed Japan to occupy the then Dutch East Indies largely unopposed.
Previously, Borsboom had conducted a series of courtesy calls to Defense Minister Purnomo Yusgiantoro, the Indonesian Military chief Gen. Moeldoko and Marsetio.

- La marine néerlandaise baptise le Karel Doorman
Le Karel Doorman, nouveau bâtiment logistique et plus grande unité de la marine néerlandaise, a été baptisé le 8 mars à Flessingue. Commandé en décembre 2009 à Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding, ce navire a vu sa coque réalisée par le chantier roumain du groupe Damen à Galti. Elle a été remorquée en août 2013 jusqu’au site DSNS de Flessingue, où elle a été achevée, recevant notamment, en début d'année, son mât intégré IM-400 fourni par Thales.
Appelé JSS (Joint Support Ship), le Karel Doorman est un bâtiment hydride, servant à la fois de pétrolier-ravitailleur et de transport de matériel et de véhicules. Long de 204.7 mètres pour 30.4 mètres de large, son déplacement à pleine charge atteindra 27.800 tonnes. Doté d’une propulsion diesel-électrique, avec une puissance totale installée de 26 MW, il peut atteindre atteindre la vitesse de 18 nœuds. En matière de ravitaillement à la mer, le JSS néerlandais compte deux bras situés de chaque bord et permettant de servir simultanément deux unités. La capacité d'emport est de 8000 m3 de combustible et 1000 m3 de carburant aviation, ainsi que 450 m3 d'eau potable et 400 tonnes de munitions. Comme on l’a vu, le Karel Doorman, armé par un équipage de 175 marins et pouvant accueillir 125 hommes supplémentaires, doit également servir de bâtiment de projection, capable d’acheminer sur un théâtre d’opération des hommes et surtout du matériel. A cet effet, il compte 2000 mètres linéaires de garages avec une capacité de 5000 tonnes de fret roulant, y compris des véhicules blindés. Une grue, d’une capacité de 40 tonnes, permet la manutention de charges lourdes, à quai ou sur des chalands de débarquement, alors que ces derniers peuvent également transborder les véhicules à l’arrière, en porte à porte.
Le Karel Doorman a été conçu pour intervenir en complément des transports de chalands de débarquement Johan de Witt et Rotterdam. Il peut aussi être engagé pour les opérations humanitaires. A ce titre, il dispose d’importantes infrastructures hospitalières, avec notamment deux blocs opératoires. Le soutien des troupes au sol ou des populations sinistrées peut être effectué au moyen des chalands, ou encore d’hélicoptères, la plateforme du Karel Doorman pouvant accueillir deux machines du type Chinook.
L’an dernier, l’avenir du bâtiment semblait incertain, la presse néerlandaise évoquant le souhait du gouvernement de vendre le Karel Doorman à une marine étrangère afin de réaliser des économies. Les Pays Bas ont donc changé leur fusil d’épaule, ou n’ont tout simplement pas trouvé (encore ?) d’acheteur, conduisant le pays à conserver le JSS. Il en revanche question, désormais, que l’Amsterdam (1995), dernier pétrolier-ravitailleur de la flotte néerlandaise après le désarmement du Zuiderkruis, en 2012, soit retiré du service et éventuellement vendu lorsque le Karel Dorrman sera pleinement opérationnel, c'est-à-dire à l’horizon 2015.

- Netherlands to deploy Chinooks to Mali
After committing four Boeing AH-64D Apache attack helicopters in November last year to support the UN's stabilisation activities in Mali, the Royal Netherlands Air Force has announced it will also deploy three Boeing CH-47 Chinook transport helicopters.
The reason behind the expanding deployment is that the UN cannot guarantee the medical evacuation of Dutch forces on a "24-7" basis. Currently-available civilian helicopters are unable to operate at night or in high-risk areas, due to a lack of self-protection capabilities.
Expected to arrive in the second half of this year, the Dutch Chinooks will be stationed in Gao. In addition to medical evacuation tasks, the rotorcraft will also be used for tactical transport and logistical support. The nation's defence ministry says the cost of committing the additional aircraft is estimated at about €45 million ($62 million).
French helicopters participating in the nation's Operation Serval campaign in Mali will support Dutch ground forces until the Chinooks arrive. http://www.flightglobal.com | |

- UDT: Dutch MoD advances submarine replacement
The Dutch MoD plans to finalise a specification requirement for a new submarine mid-2015 to replace the Walrus-class.
‘The cost-benefit ration for another overhaul is extensive so the submarines need to be replaced,’ said Captain Hugo Ammerlaan, Commanding Offices Submarine Services Netherlands at UDT in Liverpool
A current €95.3 million Life Extension Programme (LEP) extends the life of the Walrus-class until 2025.
Ammerlaan said that in 2015 the Dutch MoD will present its vision to the parliament with a requirement being finalised later that year. He expects that the decision process is going to be complex.
‘We had to postpone the decision because of the long F-35 procurement process. This means that we now have a very tight time schedule,’ said Ammerlaan.
‘The current budget is further not sufficient to procure the four boats that we need,’ he added.
However, public opinion is an important factor as ‘everyone remembers the Walrus-class affair.’ The programme had a high political and financial profile with total costs of nearly €1 billion after completion of the guarantee overhaul of the fourth and final vessel in 1995.
As a result of the current budget constraints, the Dutch MoD is looking for an international partner to increase economy of scale and reduce costs of ownership in a new submarine programme.
‘We are open to discuss the whole spectrum from training to logistics,’ Ammerlaan said.
While the MoD is currently exploring a variety of options it sees Norway as a potential partner for co-developing and building submarines.
NEVESBU, which plays a key role in the LEP for the Walrus managing the engineering, is preparing for a potential future projects with its ‘Onderzeeboot 2025’ (Submarine 2025) project.
As international cooperation will also have implications for the industry of involved nations, the company looks to strengthen its relations with potential future partners, according to Albert Jurgens, Manager of Projects at Nevesbu. http://www.shephardmedia.com | |

- Boeing Signs Rotorcraft Maintenance Agreements with Royal Netherlands Air Force, Fokker
GILZE-RIJEN AIR BASE, Netherlands, June 23, 2014 – Boeing [NYSE: BA] has signed separate agreements with the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) and Fokker Technologies to explore advanced maintenance opportunities for Dutch rotorcraft and expand efforts to make the Netherlands a regional hub for military and civilian aircraft support services.
Boeing and the RNLAF signed a strategic partnership agreement that builds on an existing support contract for Dutch AH-64 Apache and CH-47 Chinook helicopters to identify new areas of long-term cooperation.
Opportunities under consideration include adding components to the existing contract; engaging Dutch suppliers for maintenance, repair and overhaul work; and expanding use of the Logistics Center Woensdrecht, the Ministry of Defence’s center of expertise for military MRO and logistics.
"This agreement with Boeing supports my objective to increase the availability of my Apache and Chinook fleets and reduce the costs to operate them," said Lieutenant General Alexander Schnitger, commander of the Royal Netherlands Air Force. "This innovative way of cooperation with Boeing is a blueprint for future cooperation between the Royal Netherlands Air Force and other original equipment manufacturers."
"Today’s signing continues our successful innovative partnership that delivers top quality and affordable support to the Royal Netherlands Air Force, increasing performance and readiness," said Tim Sassenrath, Boeing Global Services & Support vice president of Rotorcraft Support.
Boeing and Fokker Technologies have signed a memorandum of understanding to help advance the goals outlined in the agreement with the RNLAF. It enables the companies to explore collaboration on maintenance, repair and overhaul in the Netherlands for Dutch rotorcraft and other customers.
"The selection of Fokker clearly reflects the confidence that Boeing has in our company and in our dedicated, specialized employees. This program offers great potential for the future and seamlessly fits our strategic goals," said Hans Büthker, CEO, Fokker Technologies. "We are delighted with this opportunity. It is an honor to be part of this team, working together with Boeing and the RNLAF."
The agreement builds on Boeing and Fokker’s long-term collaboration on supply chain and sales activities in the Netherlands and around the world. As a supplier to Boeing, Fokker provides various metal and composite structures for the Apache and Chinook, as well as the Apache’s landing gear and wiring for both military and commercial aircraft.
Through these agreements, Boeing continues to support the Netherlands Maintenance Valley Initiative, an effort by the Dutch government to bolster the country’s position as a regional hub for MRO activities. Boeing also has supported the World Class Aviation Academy and Rotary Wing Training Center, providing customers in the region with military maintenance training on fixed and rotary-wing aircraft. http://boeing.mediaroom.com | |
