US Navy deploys kamikaze sea drones in Pacific exercise
The US Navy has successfully deployed kamikaze sea drones during a Pacific exercise, marking a significant milestone in the development of autonomous attack drones. The drones, which are designed to detonate on impact, were used to sink a decommissioned amphibious assault ship off the coast of Hawaii. The exercise demonstrated the Navy's ability to use autonomous drones in naval operations, and highlighted the potential of this technology in future conflicts. The use of kamikaze sea drones raises important questions about the ethics and legality of autonomous warfare. The Navy's development of this technology is part of its efforts to modernize its fleet and improve its capabilities.
