Okay, this is really exciting news. You know how everyone is going drone crazy with airborne helicopters equipped with cameras? Well the US Navy is taking the drones out of the air and turning them into unmanned boats that can track submarines and resupply Navy ships and etc. These new drone ships can stay out on the ocean for up to 3 months in a single voyage and can track submarines up to 1 km away from them. Wow, the possibilities are endless with these new unmanned autonomous vessels. Mayne now, they will REALLY find that lost airplane Singapore's MH370 flight that has been missing for 2 yrs now. DAMNIT!!!
These drones were developed by the men and women of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency or DARPA for short.
The very first prototype is meant to demonstrate the potential of what will ultimately become a fleet of unmanned ships, known as Anti-Submarine Warfare Continuous Trail Unmanned Vessels (to be pronounced “active” for short). The 132 foot long vessel managed to log a top speed of 27 knots during its test in Portland, Oregon, and it’ll be ready for open seas this summer when it launches from the California coast. The drone ship’s official christening is fast approaching on April 7, and the Navy seems pretty excited by the prospects of “an unmanned vessel optimized to robustly track quiet diesel electric submarines.” So if you see this big gray beauty out on the seas this summer, don't be scared; it's not looking for you. hahaha Good job, DARPA!!! Keep up the good work of watching out for us. I don't trust that Kim-jong-un of North Korea; he's a total whack job!!! I believe he is going to launch a missile at us in the near future. I think we should take him out before it's too late.
