It briefly characterizes the current and emerging USV marketplaces to provide a baseline for near-term capabilities, describes USV concepts of employment to support diverse U.S. Navy missions and functions, and evaluates these concepts of employment to identify specific missions and functions for which they are highly suitable. USVs offer several particular strengths relative to other platforms, including the ability to interact both above and below the waterline, enabling them to serve as critical nodes for cross-domain networks. They also have potentially longer endurance, larger payloads, and higher power outputs than comparably sized unmanned air or undersea vehicles. Additionally, their greater risk tolerance compared with manned systems makes them desirable platforms for overcoming adversaries' anti-access and area-denial measures. These strengths make USVs particularly suitable for missions such as characterizing the physical environment, observation and collection regarding adversaries, mine warfare, military deception/information operations/electronic warfare, defense against small boats, testing and training, search and rescue, and the support of other unmanned vehicles. However, USVs need advanced autonomy and assured communications to complete complex missions, as well as any missions in complex environments. Autonomous seakeeping and maritime traffic avoidance are USV-specific capabilities that likely need to be developed with U.S. Navy involvement. Also, optional manning and payload modularity can enhance the desirability of USV programs. 546 English. 588 0 Print version record. 588 0 Print version. 590 JSTOR|bBooks at JSTOR Open Access 610 10 United States.|bNavy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79059051 610 17 United States.|bNavy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 533204 650 0 Remote control|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85112796|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n78095330-781 650 0 Robotics|xMilitary applications|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85114629|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Vehicles, Remotely piloted.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85142539 650 7 Remote control.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1094465 650 7 Robotics|xMilitary applications.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1099011 650 7 Vehicles, Remotely piloted.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1165027 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Blickstein, Irv,|d1939-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2002011757|eauthor. 700 1 Buryk, Peter,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2013068444|eauthor. 700 1 Button, Robert,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2005001107|eauthor. 700 1 DeLuca, Paul,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2013014046|eauthor. 700 1 Dryden, James A.,|eauthor. 700 1 Mastbaum, Jason,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2014052111|eauthor. 700 1 Osburg, Jan,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2013059914|eauthor. 700 1 Padilla, Philip,|eauthor. 700 1 Potter, Amy,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2020003681|eauthor. 700 1 Price, Carter C.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2011073128|eauthor. 700 1 Thrall, Lloyd,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2013061547|eauthor. 700 1 Woodward, Susan K.,|eauthor. 700 1 Yardley, Roland J.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2003014759|eauthor. 700 1 Yurchak, John M.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2016127019|eauthor. 710 2 Acquisition and Technology Policy Center.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2005047419 710 2 Rand Corporation,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n78083407|epublisher. 710 1 United States.|bNavy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79059051 856 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.7249/j.ctt5vjw3v|zOnline eBook.
