Navy Developing Little Autonomous Boats to Defend Its Ships
2014-10-08
Long piece at Wired. Very interesting given the multiple uses that small surface 'drones' (what else do you call them in the vernacular) might have in force protection, search and rescue, supply, special forces missions and so on.

#3  How hard would it be to develop little autonomous boats to attack ships?

#2  So, they've done away with their small surface craft (FFG's, etc) and are trying out robotic replacements.
I keep thinking that the right sort of jamming, along with some creative hacking (none of that going on in Russia or China) could turn this into the cluster to end all clusters. Literally.
