Building South Africa's naval capability: heyday, decline and prospects / Potgieter, Thean   Article
Potgieter, Thean Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Up to the abrogation of the Simon's Town Agreement in 1975, the South African Navy acquired the bulk of its equipment from Britain. Efforts to purchase corvettes and submarines from Portugal and France were cancelled during the 1970s as a result of the pariah status of apartheid South Africa. An indigenous naval shipbuilding industry developed in South Africa and succeeded in the building six Israeli-designed missile strike craft under licence and a locally designed replenishment vessel (the SAS Drakensberg) amongst others. After the end of apartheid South Africa purchased frigates and submarines from Germany, while on-board installation and integration of weapon systems and sensors were done in South Africa in cooperation with local and international armaments companies. As South Africa retains a small commercial shipbuilding industry it is anticipated that some of the naval vessels the South African Navy would require in future might be channelled to local shipyards.

Economic effect of military facility contraction: a naval case study / Asteris, Michael; Clark, David   Journal Article
Asteris, Michael Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The global financial turmoil of 2008 has resulted in the curtailment of military expenditure in most western countries. At a sub-regional-level reductions in the level of activity at a major military facility can have significant economic impact. In the light of this, the paper has two objectives: to analyse the impact of the decision to terminate naval shipbuilding at the United Kingdom’s Portsmouth Naval Base; and, for illustrative purposes, to examine the possible economic consequences of further contraction at the facility. In pursuit of these aims, it is necessary to establish the output, income and employment generated by the base using a bespoke input–output model. The methodology employed can, with appropriate adjustments, be utilised in other military or civilian contexts.

Emerging technologies: impact on shipbuilding / Jha, S K   Journal Article
Jha, S K Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Developments in the field of three-dimensional (3D) printing, autonomous ships and green technologies in recent times have drawn the attention of the shipping world. Each of these technologies has already been through decades of the development phase and now offers diverse applications across sectors. This paper examines each of these technologies from its inception to its impact on the shipbuilding industry, both warship and mercantile marine. Early impacts on shipbuilding are noticeable in refit and repairs, retro-fitments and logistic chain improvements. On-board/next port of call 3D-printed spare parts, tools and accessories are becoming increasingly common. Effective use of this technology to manufacture “one of a kind” steel parts or smaller and complex parts are facilitating substantial cost and time reductions during refits, repairs and retro-fitments. In the run-up to a fully autonomous ship, systems with increased autonomy are available as upgrades. Implementation of green technologies to conform to international regimes is increasing the scope of work of the refits and upgrades. Eventually, as newer hull and system designs mature and complete sea trials, the impact will be felt in new constructions and shipbuilding trends.

Forest of ships: Malabar’s state forests and Bombay’s dockyards, 1795–1822 / Shankar, Devika   Journal Article
Shankar, Devika Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This paper examines how the annexation of Malabar by the English East India Company in the last decade of the eighteenth century allowed the colonial administration to experiment with novel forms of state control in the region’s forests. At the same time, through a focus on the connections forged between Malabar’s forests and Bombay’s dockyards, this paper will use archival sources to examine the crucial role played by the timber monopoly introduced in 1806 in dislodging Malabar and its ports from their central position in the Indian Ocean economy and facilitating their incorporation into the margins of the emerging colonial economy.

Revisiting armaments production in Southeast Asia: new dreams, same challenges / Bitzinger, Richard A   Journal Article
Bitzinger, Richard A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract Several states in Southeast Asia have long attempted to produce their own armaments, both to support national security and to aid in national economic and technological advancement. In most cases, however, such efforts have been decidedly disappointing, and few local arms industries have been economically or technologically self-sustaining. Nevertheless, we may be witnessing a new phase of renewed interest among several Southeast Asian nations in expanding their capabilities for indigenous arms manufacturing, as evidenced in particular by new defence-industrial initiatives in Indonesia and Malaysia. These efforts have been supported by a long-term growth in defence expenditures and new efforts to utilize industrial offsets (such as technology transfers and localized production) as a part of arms acquisitions to build up local arms industries. It is unlikely, however, that these efforts alone will suffice to create economically viable local defence industries. Consequently, countries in the region will still have to make tough decisions about the future course of their defence industrial bases. Most likely, they will have to either invest considerably greater resources into developing their defence sectors (which may beyond their capacities and which are still no guarantee of success) or else they have to scale back their ambitions and choose to concentrate in niche areas where they have a better chance of being competitive in the global arms marketplace.
