No love of country. Terrible idea.

Actually most modern ships with up-to-date navigational systems, do this already.

Drone anti-sub ships are strikingly good ideas!

Would it do anything useful that a manned fleet isn’t doing now? Like sinking pirate ships?

If one of these robovessels gets into an accident, wonder how long it will take for the gummit to become aware of it.

The plans go right to China AS they are being developed, and will be hacked 17 minutes into service upon completion.
We are F--ked. Have a nice future.

Ever crewed on a Naval vessel? I have.
Ships have LOTS and LOTS of stuff on them — and stuff breaks. Quite often. Unless you constantly maintain it. EVEN if you constantly maintain it.
This isn’t a relatively simple unmanned drone that goes up and comes down (for maintenance by PEOPLE) in fairly short order.
Not saying it’ll never happen, but I am saying we don’t have the technology right now to make a reliable, robust unmanned vessel of this nature — and we won’t for some time to come.
They’re probably wise to start noodling on it though.
