Very cool! Alexandra here can take control of entire warships (actually groups of them). Even if they are uncrewed and does that in parts of my story. She was initially created for cyber-warfare but she evolved way beyond that.

That sort of reminds me of a 1973 episode of the "Superfriends" where there was an AI computer that can control ships, planes and things like that so it would make shipping easier like it would control and steer oil tankers, merchant ships and the like as well as run it's own educational TV network. It was called "GEEC" and I cannot rmemember what it meant. I also remember it could fix itself too, when one of it's vacuum tubes went bad, it just replaced it.

I seen Superfriends before. Never that particular episode. This one in one scene takes control of an entire enemy strike group and fires it on another enemy strike group. Although my personal fravorite is when the squad cant escape an enemy carrier so instead they fly right into the landing bay, plug the AI into the computer, disable all security systems and depressurize the ship and then take control of it.
