Jeez, assuming this is true this submarine drone will likely be in Iranian hands in short order to be reverse engineered. Not good!

"submarine drone will likely be in Iranian hands in short order to be reverse engineered"

Iranian and/or the highest bidder

[Alas Babylon!]

Assuming it is true? I don’t think it is true. No one else is reporting this story. Who is Olalekan Adigun and BNNBreaking?

[4yearlurker]

Obama ordered it "captured." Just like a few years back when he landed a drone in Iran complete and intact.

[wardamneagle]

Didn’t have a self destruct feature?

Between the troubles that Russia's Black Sea fleet has had and the impotence of the US fleet against a mid-rate force of Houthis in the Red Sea theater, I'm getting the impression that naval power in general is under serious threat from drone technology.

That has some serious ramifications for naval strategy and power projection. The Washington regime is hugely dependent on naval superiority as a tool for force projection and interdiction of enemy movements as well as for commerce protection. Just as the British empire was dependent on her navy as the basis for its pre-eminence, without a strong navy the US is potentially unable to influence or control events across Eurasian/African theaters. American "isolationism" may in fact be forced upon it whether it chooses it politically or not.

How could this happen to our woke navy? I mean, their, like, you know, so progressive!!

[dead]

At least our Navy can boast about a bunch of trannies.

[MeganC]

Oh yeah...that’s a glorified torpedo.

Who’d they bribe to turn it over?

[Pennsyltucky Boy]

Well, it happened with spy aircraft drones under a Democrat President, why shouldn’t it happen with sea drones under a Democrat Presidency? Let’s not forget the boat captured by the Iranians from our gang that can’t sail straight. Military incompetence is magnified when they are forced to fight with their hands tied behind their backs. They take risks with intelligence technology instead and wind up giving away secret technology and capabilities that took decades to develop.

[Track9]

Who’s to say it wasn’t done intentionally.

[TalBlack]

Real men would go after the thing and take it out.

[Shqipo]

Has Biden given one to the Taliban yet, ya know, for equity.

[Candor7]

The USN apprently is commanded by a collective of liberal lefties and transgenders who are just “Oh so friendly” to the HOuthis, filing to push the self destruct button on captured advanced ordnance, because the Houthis give them all tingles down their legs to imagine themselves going full astern into the cone of a huge Houthi missile?

WTF?

We are done. China will soon invade Taiwan becwuse the USN has transgenders who will not push the lethality USN ship with all hands.

“Yemeni Navy Captures Advanced American Unmanned Submarine”

One of two possibilities: Either the Russians helped Yemen, or the sub didn’t bother to have a self-destruct capability to prevent it from getting into the wrong hands, as they considered that outcome IMPOSSIBLE.

I’d have to go with the second possibility (arrogance), which is also why Russia is rolling through Ukraine this year.
