CHAPTER 1
Background of the
Germany warfare
technology
Technology during World War I (1914–1918) reflected a trend toward industrialism and
the application of mass-production methods to weapons and to the technology of warfare
 in general. This trend began at least fifty years prior to World War I during the 
American Civil War of 1861–1865, and continued through many smaller conflicts in which
soldiers and strategists tested new weapons. World War I weapons included types
standardized and improved over the preceding period, together with some newly
developed types using innovative technology and a number of improvised weapons used
in trench warfare. Military technology of the time included important innovations in 
machine guns, grenades, and artillery, along with essentially new weapons such as 
submarines, poison gas, warplanes and tanks. Trench warfare led to the development of
the concrete pill box, a small, hardened blockhouse that could be used to deliver machine
gun fire. Pillboxes could be placed across a battlefield with interlocking fields of fire.
Because attacking an entrenched enemy was so difficult, tunnel warfare became a major
effort during the war. Once enemy positions were undermined, huge amounts of
explosives would be planted and detonated as part preparation for an overland charge.
Sensitive listening devices that could detect the sounds of digging were a crucial method
of defense against these underground incursions.
The British proved especially adept at these tactics, thanks to the skill of their tunnel-digging "
sappers" and the sophistication of their listening devices. Clothing the British and German
armies had already changed from red coat (British army) (1902) or Prussian blue (1910) for
field uniforms, to less conspicuous khaki or field gray. Adolphe Messimy, Joseph Gallieni and
other French leaders had proposed following suit, but the French army marched to war in their
traditional red trousers, and only began receiving the new "horizon blue" ones in 1915. Artillery
in the 19th century, Britain and France exploited the rapid technical developments in artillery to
serve a War of Movement. Such weapons served well in the colonial wars of that century, and
served Germany very well in the Franco-Prussian War, but trench warfare was more like a 
siege, and called for siege guns. Field artillery entered the war with the idea that each gun
should be accompanied by hundreds of shells, and armories ought to have about a thousand
on hand for resupply. This proved utterly inadequate when it became commonplace for a gun to
sit in one place and fire a hundred shells or more per day for weeks or months on end. To meet
the resulting Shell Crisis of 1915, factories were hastily converted from other purposes to make
more ammunition. Railways to the front were expanded or built, leaving the question of the 
last mile. Horses in World War I were the main answer, and their high death rate seriously
weakened the Central Powers late in the war. In many places the newly invented 
trench railways helped. The new motor trucks as yet lacked pneumatic tires, versatile
suspension, and other improvements that in later decades would allow them to perform well.
The majority of casualties inflicted during the war were the result of artillery fire. Poison gas
is a Chemical weapon were first used systematically in this war. 
Chemical weapons in World War I included phosgene, tear gas, chlorarsines and mustard gas.
Command and Controls in the early days of the war, generals tried to direct tactics from
headquarters many miles from the front, with messages being carried back and forth by 
couriers on motorcycles. It was soon realized that more immediate methods of communication
were needed. Radio sets of the period were too heavy to carry into battle, and field telephone
 lines laid were quickly broken. Either one was subject to eavesdropping, and trench codes
were not very satisfactory. Runners, flashing lights, and mirrors were often used instead; dogs
were also used, but were only used occasionally as troops tended to adopt them as pets and
men would volunteer to go as runners in the dog's place. There were also aircraft (called
"contact patrols") that carried messages between headquarters and forward positions,
sometimes dropping their messages without landing. Technical advances in radio, however,
continued during the war and radio telephony was perfected, being most useful for airborne
artillery spotters. Railways dominated in this war as in no other. The German strategy was
known beforehand by the Allies simply because of the vast marshaling yards on the Belgian
border that had no other purpose than to deliver the mobilized German army to its start point
War of Attrition the countries involved in the war applied the full force of industrial
mass-production to the manufacture of weapons and ammunition, especially artillery
shells. Women on the home-front played a crucial role in this by working in munitions
factories. This complete mobilization of a nation's resources, or "total war" meant
that not only the armies, but also the economies of the warring nations were in
competition. Air Warfare aviation in World War I started with primitive aircraft,
primitively used. Technological progress was swift, leading to ground attack, 
tactical bombing, and highly publicized, deadly dogfights among aircraft equipped
with forward-firing, synchronized machine guns from July 1915 onwards. Mobility in
the early days of the war, armored cars armed with machine guns were organized
into combat units, along with cyclist infantry and 
machine guns mounted on motor cycle sidecars. Though not able to assault
entrenched positions, they provided mobile fire support to infantry, and performed
scouting, reconnaissance, and other roles similar to cavalry. After trench warfare
took hold of major battle-lines, opportunities for such vehicles greatly diminished,
though they continued to see use in the more open campaigns in Russia and the
Middle East
 Tanks had been suggested as early as the 1890s, authorities showed little more than a
passing interest in them until the trench stalemate of World War I caused reconsideration. In
early 1915, the British Royal Navy and French industrialists both started dedicated
development of tanks. Submarines world War I was the first conflict in which submarines were
a serious weapon of war. In the years shortly before the war, the relatively sophisticated
propulsion system of diesel power while surfaced and battery power while submerged was
introduced. Their armament had similarly improved, but few were in service. Small arms
infantry weapons for major powers were mainly bolt-action rifles, capable of firing ten or more
rounds per minute. German soldiers carried Gewehr 98 rifle in 8mm mauser, the British carried
the Short Magazine Lee–Enfield rifle, and the US military employed the M1903 Springfield and 
M1917 Enfield. Rifles with telescopic sights were used by snipers, and were first used by the
Germans. Grenades proved to be effective weapons in the trenches. When the war started,
grenades were few and poor. Hand grenades were used and improved throughout the war. 
Contact fuzes became less common, replaced by time fuzes. Flamethrowers the Imperial
German Army deployed flamethrowers (Flammenwerfer) on the Western Front attempting to
flush out French or British soldiers from their trenches. Introduced in 1915, it was used with
greatest effect during the Hooge battle of the Western Front on 30 July 1915.

GERMAN
TANKS
 LEOPARD 2a7

The Leopard 2A7+ battle tank is built based on the Leopard 2

MBT and employs digitised technology and multifunctional
user concept for improved sustainability. The turret and
chassis of the Leopard 2A7+ are fitted with a cooling
system. The modular design of the tank allows high-intensity
operations in urban environments. The battle tank has a
length of around 10.97m, width up to 4m and a turret roof
height of 2.64m. The vehicle weighs 67,500kg and can be
controlled by a crew of four. Its exterior is incorporated with a
communication interface to enable interaction between the
dismounted soldiers.
 
 The Panzerkampfwagen VI
(Tiger Tank)

The tank’s modern reputation as a fast, hard-hitting, deadly

war chariot is largely due to the German Army’s use of the
tank in the early years of World War II. Although first invented
by the British in World War I, the Wehrmacht and SS took the
tank to its logical conclusion, in doing so swinging the
pendulum of war from defense as the dominant form of
warfare back to the offense. Although the bulk of German
tank forces was composed of smaller tanks such as the
Panzerkampfwagen III and IV, the Panzerkampfwagen VI—or
Tiger tank—was designed to be the decisive factor on the
armored battlefield.
 Schützenpanzerwagen
(Sd Kfz 251)

The Sd.Kfz. 251 was designed to transport

the Panzergrenadier (German mechanized infantry) into
battle. Sd.Kfz. 251s were the most widely produced German
half-tracks of the war, with at least 15,252 vehicles and
variants produced by seven manufacturers. Some sources
state that the Sd.Kfz. 251 was commonly referred to simply as
"Hanomags" by both German and Allied soldiers after the
manufacturer of the vehicle this has been questioned, and
may have been only a postwar label.
 Fennek

The Fennek, named after the fennec (a species of small

desert fox), or LGS Fennek, with LGS being short
for Leichter Gepanzerter Spähwagen in German (Light
Armoured Reconnaissance Vehicle), is a four wheeled
armed reconnaissance vehicle produced by the German
company Krauss-Maffei Wegmann and Dutch Defence
Vehicle Systems. It was developed for both the German
Army and Royal Netherlands Army to replace their
current vehicles.
 GERMAN
NAVAL SEAL
Baden-Württemberg-class frigate

The F125 Baden-Württemberg-class frigates are a
series of frigates of the German Navy, which were
designed and constructed by ARGE F125, a joint-
venture of Thyssen-Krupp and Lürssen. The Baden-
Württemberg class have the highest displacement of any
class of frigate worldwide. They are to replace
the Bremen class. They are primarily designed for low
and medium intensity maritime stabilization operations,
where they are supposed to provide sea-to-land tactical
fire support, asymmetric threat control at sea and
support of special forces.
 Brandenburg-class frigate

The F123 Brandenburg class is a class
of German frigate. They were ordered by the German
Navy in June 1989 and completed and commissioned
between 1994 and 1996, replacing the Hamburg-
class destroyers. The ships primarily carry out anti-
submarine warfare (ASW), but they also contribute to
local anti-aircraft defenses, the tactical command
of squadrons, and surface-to-surface warfare operations.
Together with the F124 Sachsen class frigates, they are
the mainstay of the German surface fleet.
 Bremen-class frigate

The eight F122 Bremen-class frigates of the German

Navy are a series of frigates commissioned between
1982 and 1990. The design is based on the proven and
robust Dutch Kortenaer class but uses a different
propulsion system and hangar lay-out. The ships were
built for anti-submarine warfare as a primary task
although they are not fitted with towed array sonars.
They are also equipped for anti-surface warfare, while
having anti-aircraft warfare point defenses.
 Braunschweig-class corvette

The K130 Braunschweig class (sometimes Korvette
130) is Germany's newest class of ocean-
going corvettes. Five ships have replaced the Gepard-
class fast attack craft of the German Navy. In October
2016 it was announced that a second batch of five more
corvettes is to be procured from 2022–25. The decision
was in response to NATO requirements expecting
Germany to provide a total of four corvettes at the
highest readiness level for littoral operations by 2018,
and with only five corvettes just two can be provided.
 Planet (research ship)

Planet of the German Navy is the most modern naval

research ship within NATO. It was built as
a SWATH design in order to reduce the hull volume and
to increase the ship's stability, particularly in high seas
and at high speed. It is used for geophysics and naval
technology trials and research. While technically not
armed, it is equipped with torpedo launch capability.
Other weapons systems can be installed for weapon
trials.
GERMAN
AIRCRAFT
 Panavia Tornado

The Panavia Tornado is a family of twin-

engine, variable-sweep wing multirole combat aircraft,
jointly developed and manufactured by Italy, the United
Kingdom and West Germany. There are three
primary Tornado variants: the Tornado IDS
(interdictor/strike) fighter-bomber, the suppression of
enemy air defences Tornado ECR (electronic
combat/reconnaissance) and the Tornado ADV (air
defence variant) interceptor aircraft.
GERMAN
AIRBORNE
 EMT ALADIN
EMTAladin (German: Abbildende Luftgestützte Aufkläru
ngsdrohne im Nächstbereich, airborne reconnaissance
drone for close area imaging) is a small, man-portable
light reconnaissance miniature unmanned aerial
vehicle (UAV) employed by the Bundeswehr (German
Army). An Aladin UAV of the German Army.
The UAV can be radio-controlled via a portable control
station or fly according to previously
set GPS coordinates. It features a day and night camera
and video-relay. It can be transported in two suitcases,
which contain the disassembled drone, and a backpack
with the control station. The aircraft can be assembled
and disassembled without tools in the field within five
minutes. The aircraft can be launched by hand or with
a bungee catapult.
 EMT Luna X-2000

Luna X 2000 is a German unmanned aerial

vehicle (UAV) in service with the Bundeswehr (German
Army) and produced by EMT Penzberg of Germany. It is
intended for close reconnaissance (over the hill, up to 65
kilometres (40 mi) away), transmitting live video data
(visual or infrared) or taking higher resolution still
images, but it can also perform other tasks such as
particle sampling, ESM/Electronic
countermeasures (radio/radar jamming), depending on
its payload.The UAV is launched with a simple
bungee catapult and then follows a preprogrammed
course, that can be altered in flight if necessary. After its
mission it automatically lands with the help of
a parachute and impact dampers.
 GERMAN
AIR DEFENSE
 Rheinmetall transfers
MANTIS Air Defense
System

MANTIS is based on tried-and-tested Oerlikon Sky shield air

defense technology. It is designed to protect military installations
and critical civilian infrastructure from aerial threats coming in at
low altitude, including manned and unmanned aircraft. First and
foremost, however, what sets MANTIS apart is its ability to
neutralize incoming rockets, artillery and mortar rounds - the so-
called RAM threat. Moreover, MANTIS can be deployed to defend
national territory and allied nations or in military operations other
than war (MOOTW). In conflict and post-conflict situations, it can
be used to protect Bundeswehr forward operating bases and other
facilities from attacks of the kind directed against ISAF installations
in Afghanistan, for instance.
CHAPTER 3
Research the rank standing
of the country and why they
are in that rank.
The German economy is the fourth-largest in the world with a GDP of $4.0 trillion.
Germany has a GDP (PPP) of $4.44 trillion and a per capita GDP of $46,560, the 18th –
highest in the world. Germany’s highly developed social market economy is Europe’s largest
and strongest economy and has one of the most skilled workforces. Germany accounted for
28 percent of the euro area economy, according to the International Monetary Fund. Car
manufacturing, machinery, home equipment, and chemicals are among Germany's
significant industries. The economy suffered a substantial setback following the 2008
financial crisis due to its reliance on capital goods exports. Due to the Internet and the
digital age, the German economy is currently in the midst of its fourth industrial revolution.
This change is known as Industry 4.0, and it encompasses solutions, processes, and
technologies, as well as the usage of IT and a high degree of system networking in factories.
Germany's growing economy, which is the fourth largest in the world and the largest in Europe,
is based on the export of high-quality manufactured goods. Other European countries and the
United States have criticized Germany for its low defense spending and the construction of a
second natural gas pipeline link with Russia. Germany is one of the world's largest exporters,
with goods and services valued $1810.93 billion in 2019. The service sector accounts for over
70% of total GDP, industry for 29.1%, and agriculture for 0.9 percent. Exports accounted for
41% of total production. The German economies competitiveness and global networking can
be attributed to its high level of innovation and strong export orientation. Exports make for
well over half of overall sales in high-selling sectors like car manufacturing, mechanical and
plant engineering, the chemicals industry, and medical technology.
CHAPTER 4
Conclusion Discussed the
advantage and difference between
other countries in rank.
 German Trade and Comparative Advantage

The primary source of Germany's economic comparative advantages lies with advanced

manufacturing products, and a strategic focus on an information-based society. German engineered
and manufactured products benefit from a global appeal for both quality and design. While other
countries focus on cost cutting and lower labor costs, German manufacturing remains competitive
through product innovation and increased labor productivity. While German labor costs are as much
as 30% higher than the United States, manufacturing remains both a steady and robust employer.
Specific advanced manufacturing industries that benefit from increased trade are automobiles,
equipment, and renewable energy products. The following is a brief breakdown of target markets
for each of these trade products.

Germany advantage economic has a mixed economy. It allows a free market economy in consumer
goods and business services. But the government imposes regulations even in those areas to
protect its citizens. Germany has a command economy in defense since everyone receives the
benefit, while those with higher incomes pay more in taxes.
 Germany the world's most sustainable country

Germany has shown its commitment to renewable energy and protecting the environment. It
has long been at the forefront of pioneering new technology to help in the war against fossil
fuels, CO2 emissions, and pollution, and its dedicated garbage recycling system is one of the
most thorough in the world.

Living in Germany can be a beautiful experience as it has a very high quality of life and it
boasts for having the largest economy in whole Europe. Furthermore, unemployment is
reducing on a month-to-month basis, exceeding historic records. Germany has many great
characteristics, however, like any other country, there are some advantages and limitations to
living in Germany. From our experience and other expats’, the pros, more often than not,
outweigh the cons. Below we give you some of the top benefits encountered by expats living
in Germany.
Pro: Public Transport

Germany is home to some of the nicest roads in Europe and it can be a heaven on earth for car
enthusiasts, however, in reality you do not even need a car due to the country’s highly efficient
transport network. The public transport in Germany is excellent, whether you opt for the bus, tram
or train.

Leading Economy

Germany is Europe's economic engine. Investors profit from the economic performance of
the world's fourth largest economy. They also offer a large domestic market and easy
access to growing markets in the enlarged European Union
Global Player

Germany is the world’s number three exporter, neck and neck with China and the US after six years
at the top spot. And with EUR 469 billion FDI, they also proved to be an investment magnet and one
of the top regions for foreign investors

High Productivity

One of the highest productivity rates in the world, German quality, and steadily decreasing unit
labor costs are the decisive factors for our competitiveness. A series of social and market reforms
have further contributed to Germany's continued economic growth to make it one of Europe’s most
cost-effective production locations.
Innovative Power

Germany is Europe's № 1 location for research. German R&D is backed by billions of euros in annual
federal funds, helping to make Germany the world's leader in innovation. It's this commitment
which also makes the Europe's leading patent applicant and the leading global force in high-tech
solutions.

First Class Infrastructure

Located at the heart of Europe, Germany is Europe's number one logistics market. A sophisticated
energy and communications infrastructure and first-class transportation networks ensure on-time
delivery and short roads to success.
Competitive Tax Conditions

Germany has significantly reduced its corporate tax levels. A far-reaching reform of company
taxation is helping companies invest, and secure new business. The Federal Government’s raft of
reforms to improve the general tax framework and keep indirect labor costs down are opening
doors of opportunity to ever more investors.

Quality of Life

Germany is a modern, tolerant, and cosmopolitan society with an excellent standard of living.
Superior health and education provision, endless opportunities for sports and recreation in our
beautiful landscape, and a vibrant cultural scene are just some of the reasons why more than seven
million foreigners have made their homes in Germany.
Germany has set itself ambitious climate targets. The Climate Action Plan 2050, adopted by the Federal
Cabinet at the end of 2016, particularly demonstrated the commitment of the German government to
tackling climate change with ambitious climate policy. The Climate Action Plan 2050 shows Germany's
strategy for implementing the Paris Agreement.
 
The plan Centre’s on the goal of achieving extensive greenhouse gas neutrality by 2050. The objectives of
the Paris Agreement are the starting point for this 2050 vision. Under the agreement, global greenhouse
gas neutrality must be achieved by the second half of this century. Another goal of the Paris Agreement is
to keep global warming significantly below two degrees Celsius, or even below 1.5 degrees.

Germany is one of the first countries to submit the long-term low GHGemission development strategy to
the UN as required under the Paris Agreement. Germany has submitted its strategy well before the
specified deadline of 2020. The German Government considers long-term strategies as a key instrument
for future-oriented, reliable policy planning. The findings of the strategies are also very useful for the
facilitative dialogue, due to take place in 2018 under the Framework Convention on Climate Change. The
facilitative dialogue aims to take stock of the global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The
results will inform the revision or elaboration of nationally determined contributions (NDCs) of all parties
in 2020.
For 2030, the Climate Action Plan 2050 reiterates the overall target of a greenhouse gas reduction of at
least 55 percent compared to 1990. This overall target has been broken down for individual sectors, while
at the same time mapping out a clear direction for all sectors.
 
The Climate Action Plan also gives guidance on steering development into greenhouse gas neutral and
low-carbon pathways, hence making the economy, society and lifestyle climate friendly. Thus, the Climate
Action Plan 2050 is a concrete framework for strategic decisions over the coming years for businesses,
unions, the scientific community, innovators and civil society.
 Strategy for modernizing the economy
The Climate Action Plan 2050 is a strategy for modernizing the national economy, providing guidance for all
areas of action up to 2050 and for upcoming investments, especially for the period up to 2030: By setting out
clear framework conditions, the strategy will help avoid stranded investments and structural breaks. The
Climate Action Plan 2050 introduces a paradigm shift: In future, renewable energies and energy efficiency will
be the standard for investments. In this way, the Climate Action Plan 2050 creates the necessary conditions to
keep Germany's economy competitive in a decarbonizing world.
 
Climate action is an opportunity for German industry: The 2017 report Climate Action in Figures shows that
current policy is already having positive employment effects. In 2015, the renewable energy sector provided
330,000 jobs.
A study by PricewaterhouseCoopers commissioned by the Federal Environment Ministry estimated that
measures under the Climate Action Programmed 2020 will create an employment potential of 430,000
additional jobs by 2020.
According to the study, the measures adopted will generate around one percent additional growth to gross
domestic product.
The German government subscribes to the guiding principle of sustainable global development,
which is based on acting responsibly towards future generations. Accordingly, a responsible climate
policy must always rest on two pillars. Firstly, it must be a factor in ensuring that average global
warming does not exceed the two-degree mark. Secondly, it must recognize risks and prepare for
the inevitable effects of climatic changes that will occur with even a moderate degree of global
warming.
 
Complementary to the “European F-gas Regulation”, the German government enacted the
Chemicals Climate Protection Ordinance, which stipulates further requirements for equipment
containing F-gas, such as maximum HFC refrigerant leakage rates for refrigeration and air
conditioning plants.
 
Germany have created a program whose purpose is to prepare for any disaster that they will face,
this is "The Climate Action Plan 2050" The plan Centre’s on the goal of achieving extensive
greenhouse gas neutrality by 2050. Also, this is their way in which they can be given guidance in
making actions or plans for their future economy. This shows the readiness of their country to deal
with upcoming issues or disasters in their country.
