Navy "Drone" Boats

 

The United States Navy is testing "drone" boats to be used in the field. They detect a vessel that is a threat to the Navy Ship, and five of these boats swarm the vessel to confront it. They are controlled by Control Architecture for Robotic Agent Command and Sensing (CARACaS). Some of these unmanned boats are cruising on the James River in Virginia, setting up a protective screen on a Navy research ship. They are like guard dogs, and put our sailors of harms way.
