	PM - Government admits Kockums' propeller details given away
		KOCKUMS, the propellers' designer, is seeking an injunction in the Federal Court to stop the Government from delivering one of its Collins Class propellers to the US Navy.
		Kockums, the leading designer of non-nuclear submarine technology, maintains the submarine's propeller is highly commercial sensitive information that must be protected.
		Kockums was well pleased it had stopped the delivery of its propeller to the US Navy, that is, until today.

		Kockums and the Swedish Navy are the first to implement the theory in practice.
		Malmö-based Kockums is an advanced-technology centre of competence in the company`s chosen naval niche sectors, specialised in stealth technology, both on and below the surface.
		As part of this strategy, Kockums are building up simulation and modelling laboratories in Malmö and Karlskrona, which will in time be linked directly to the parent company`s laboratory (HDW) in Kiel, and to the company’s customers.

	Procuring Change: How Kockums was Selected for the Collins Class Submarine (Research Paper 4 2001-02) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Kockums had developed designs for export markets and had been a finalist in the Indian navy evaluations (eventually won by IKL) with a 1600 ton design which had a range of 10 000 nm and required a crew of 33.
		The covert transit range at ten kts was assessed by Kockums as 9300 nm and by the RAN at 10 440 nm.
		Kockums appeared to be more aware and accommodating of the effects of RAN operational profiles on base line design performance.

		The intellectual property issue is more complex and involves a dispute over whether the federal government, licensed by Kockums to service, maintain and enhance six submarines, created a second source of supply when it gave a sub-licence to ASC to build the submarines.
		Kockums argues the ASC is a second source and it wants $80 million to clear the issue.

		Kockums built the HMS Smyge surface ship at its Karlskronavarvet shipyard on Karlskrona Island, where the company launched a naval ship, the Blekinge, in 1682.
		Kockums partnered with the Swedish Navy, Defense Material Administration, and the Royal Institute of Technology to develop the new vessel, named the Visby in honor of a Swedish coastal city.
		The Kockums shipwrights designed the Visby to be electronically undetectable at a range greater than 13 km in rough seas, and at more than 22 km in calm seas, without electronic jamming.

		Kockums say the Visby corvette can be regarded as a victory for the Swedish model, that has entailed the close co-operation of many expert institutions over many years.
		In this case it involved Kockums collaborating with the FMV and the Royal Institute of Technology.
		According to Kockums, the days when the firepower of a ship was sufficient for its protection are gone.

		IN A DEAL which could lead to a major breakthrough in the use of composites in military vessels, the Swedish developer of the all-composite Visby ‘stealth’; corvette, Kockums AB, is teaming up with global defence giant Northrop Grumman to design a new ship for the US Navy.
		This study is expected to lead to the development of a Littoral Combat Ship (LCS), which is one element of the new DD(X) family of surface combatants the Navy is planning to construct over the next 25 years.
		Kockums has already received an order for five Visby-class corvettes, with an option on a sixth.

	SOLDIERTECH: The Latest in Stealth Ship Technology
		This composite material has been proven to reduce a ship's "signature," so that not only is it more difficult to pick up on radar, but also less vulnerable to mines and other types of electronic detection, such as infrared.
		Kockums originally used diamonds to cut the carbon fiber in building the Visby, but the diamonds wore out quickly, and thus the engineers had to build a new, tougher cutting technology -- an extreme high-pressure water jet.
		Kockums claims that a 120-meter long ship has been designed that is comparable to the Visby's high stealth standards, so a future in which these ships patrol the oceans may be closer than we think.

		The licence was further limited "to the purposes of operating, repairing, maintaining and supporting” the deliverables under the contracts and to developing the deliverables “for the purpose of modifying, enhancing or improving their operation".
		After unsuccessful attempts to obtain an undertaking not to disclose Kockums' intellectual property to third parties, Kockums brought an application for an interlocutory injunction against the Commonwealth to prevent intellectual property rights infringement and disclosure of confidential information.
		The Court found that while Kockums owned the intellectual property, Kockums had granted a licence to the Commonwealth to use the intellectual property for the services of the Commonwealth to modify and enhance deliverables under the contract, including the propellers.
