德國TKMS：希望法國SAFT引進LIB！
・日本MHI、LIB在大井安裝並投入運作
・海軍集團將僱用 Scorpene Evolved 和 Blacksword Barracuda
我們將為您提供在 Meta-defense 上發表的文章摘要。
Submarines from Germany’s TKMS:
ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems is a German naval and submarine design company.
Currently, it is the undisputed leader in the AIP and conventional powered submarine market.
In fact, TKMS’s Type 209, Type 212, and Type 214 have been delivered to more than half of the world’s submarine fleet.
1. However, Germany’s TKMS does not have its own LIB technology.
2. In the future, we would like to introduce the latest LIB equipment using French technology.
TKMS’s technological superiority is cracking:
TKMS is being threatened by other countries in the bidding competition for Canada’s new submarines.
1. France’s Naval Group’s Scorpene Evolved and Blacksword Barracuda,
2. and Korea’s Hanwha Ocean’s KSS-III are directly threatening TKMS’s market share.
TKMS is behind in LIB development:
In the field of LIB, German submarines are lagging behind other countries.
1. Until now, TKMS has built an advantage in sales of the Type 214 thanks to AIP technology.
2. However, LIB technology is superior to lead-acid batteries and AIP technology.
Introducing LIB technology would significantly reduce the maintenance burden of submarines.
TKMS’s LIB introduction plan:
TKMS has asked the German Navy to install LIBs.
1. One of the six Type 212A submarines currently in operation will be equipped with LIB.
2. This type will undergo system development and evaluation to confirm functionality.
This will be used in other submarines, such as Type 212 CD for the German Navy and Norwegian Navy.
The proposal for the Canadian Navy has also been promised to include LIB.
End of AIP technology:
AIP (Air-Independent Propulsion) technology for oxygen-free systems for submarines.
The AIP system injects stored oxygen and burns it in diesel engines.
German submarines do not yet have the latest LIB technology.
1. TKMS is seeking support from the German Navy (= testing LIB on Type 212A submarines)
2. TKMS plans to install battery cells from France’s SAFT with LIB technology.
The Taigei is equipped with a new type of LIB:
In the 1990s, LIB technology emerged that utilizes the characteristics of LIB to store and recover electricity.
1. It took another 15 years for the Japanese Taigei to enter service in March 2022.
2. The Japanese Taigei was only recently commissioned.
The Taigei prioritized system efficiency and, above all, safety.
