America’s ‘Ghost Fleet’: A Ship-by-Ship Breakdown of the Autonomous Ships Boosting Navy Firepower

February 6, 2024
The U.S. Navy is betting big on unmanned ships. Cheaper and faster to build than traditional ships, autonomous vessels could help the Navy boost firepower at a time when shipbuilding is expensive and slow. Informally known as the “Ghost Fleet,” the service’s current unmanned ships are paving the way for a much larger fleet in the future.One of the most enduring nautical legends is that of the ghos
