The U.S. Navy is developing drone ships that are intended to play an important role in defense plans against China. These vessels are supposed to operate autonomously, without human involvement. However, recent tests have shown several serious failures, and the project is facing difficulties.
During a test off the coast of California last month, two drone ships collided. In another test, one of the drones unexpectedly accelerated and capsized a support boat. Experts explained this as software errors combined with human mistakes.
The Pentagon wants to develop these drones quickly, as the war in Ukraine has shown that such technologies can be very effective. The new American drones cost millions of dollars and are planned to strengthen the fleet in the future.
According to experts, the U.S. Navy is trying to introduce new technologies rapidly, but this requires major risks and responsibility. Therefore, additional time and a new approach may be needed to ensure the effective operation of the drone fleet.
