The second reason it’s because they still need to pay some of the life toll they took in ww2 and it’s a cheaper way to pay instead of pure money. The third reason is that their warship’s industry, it need to work all the time or it will become economic burden for Germany to maintain its very expensive shipyards without orders on their way , and if in the future German will want to rebuild it’s navy they will have to pay a lot more for reopen its ship industry from zero again.

You missed the most important part buddy. Half way thru the build the Sovereign Wealth Fund of the United Arab Emirates purchased a controlling stake in the German Shipyard. The Israelis were not exactly happy their blueprints were likely shared thru the Arab World, so they got an even larger discount than you think. Being on the other side of the World, I found the whole scenario pretty amusing really.

[@ihl0700677525]

Why would the Chinese attack Panama and not Alaska or US West Coast? Attacking Panama means drawing Central American states into the war against China. Besides, US fleet from bases in Florida could reach Panama much faster than Chinese fleet from mainland China.

Not really. Even the old german Bremen-Frigate had 3680 tons Deplacement. The German K130-Corvettes have 1840 tons, and the Sa'ar Class is kind of a younger sister of them and has 2000 tons. Modern german frigats have 4700 - 7200 tons. Ok, thats only the deplacement, but it shows that it's a long way to call them "almost frigate-size" - if you look from a german navy shipbuilders point

One reason Germany subsidizes projects for the Israeli navy is also to keep the German ship building capabilities alive and constantly modern. For example, after the collapse of the Soviet Union there was a lack of orders for U Boats so to keep the German U Boat building facilities busy Germany agreed to finance part of the costs of the Dolphin class. Germany also payed one whole submarine in compensation to Israel because it turned out that Germany had previously sold ballistic missile technology and chemical weapon Iraq which were then used against Israeli cities in the Gulf war inspite of signing Missile Technology Control Regime protocols which forbade the sale of such technologies.

[@jacobbaumgardner3406]

Yes, German shipbudinghasbeen suffering's of late, with the next gen frigates being built mostly by Dutch shipbuilders Damen, with some help from several German yards. Still compared to other shipbuilding giants in Europe such as BAE, Babcock, Naval Group, and Fincantieri, Germany needs a good boost.
