- (1888PressRelease) June 23, 2022 - The U.S. Chief of Naval Operations wants to deploy minimally manned or unmanned surface vessels with a strike group in the next five or six years, with an eye toward scaled-up unmanned systems operations around the globe in the 2030s.
Adm. Mike Gilday told reporters earlier this February that he wants the U.S. Navy to experiment, fail fast as needed, and learn a lot of lessons on unmanned technology and concepts of operations.
“We’re moving now. We’re using [research and development] money now. We are leveraging NavalX through [the assistant secretary of the Navy for research, development, and acquisition] to leverage our touchpoints into the industry, especially small companies,” he said. *
