On the unmanned side, and we're looking at the Black Sea, the battle for the Black Sea and what Ukraine has arguably successfully done with an unmanned, hybrid navyor almost all unmannedto provide sea control and sea denial to the Russian fleet, Gen. Annibale said at the MDM panel The Evolving Character of Expeditionary Warfare-Unmanned Systems Supporting Marines and the Naval Campaign, on Thursday. <\/p>\n
The Navys first robotics warfare specialist was pinned in February. This is part the evolution of the service as autonomy gains importance, according to Gen. Annibale. <\/p>\n
One recent development was the use of the Lionfish, a seabed reconnaissance device. During a recent exercise with allies the U.S. device recognized an anomaly of interest on the terrain, a potential mine, and relayed precise data to operators in the surface to decide how to counter that danger, according to Gen. Annibale. This device was used in coordination with U.K. and Netherland devices to provide a more complete picture, during this training event. <\/p>\n
A plethora of use cases emerges in the Department of Defense for unmanned vehicles, still this is not the only technology the Marines expect to leverage in the near future. <\/p>\n
What we really need to take a look at are gaps that are huge: counter small [unmanned aerial vehicles] force protection capabilities, said Col. Derek Brannon, director of the Cunningham Group, deputy commandant for Aviation, during another panel. <\/p>\n
