🇩🇪🤝🇨🇦 *German-Canadian partnership further strengthened*
On December 18, 2025, the commander of Operational Flotilla 1, Flotilla Admiral Christian Walter Meyer, received a delegation from the Canadian government in Eckernförde.
The delegation then visited ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) $DE000TKMS001 (+1,91%) and gained an insight into the modern submarine production process. The visit concluded with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This serves as an important step towards deepening bilateral cooperation and creates a common basis for further exchange and possible future projects in the maritime and military sectors.
For almost 75 years, Germany and Canada have been linked by a close and reliable partnership - characterized by shared values, responsibility and a focus on the future. With a view to the anniversary year 2026, this friendship will be further deepened, especially at the military level.

It will be interesting to see whether this visit could go some way towards fulfilling the order for 12 U212CD class submarines. It remains exciting.
