Very definitely worth a read!

Worth reading. UAVs, USVs and UUV’s all have potential and a role, but are not the panacea. The costs and risks are different, so we need to keep the mission in mind. Remember, form follows function and not the other way around!!

A great article on the challenges of developing strategy. US centric but just as applicable for Australia. The strategies and actions of US and China (mainly, but other countries as well) are key factors in a middle power’s strategic assessments thestrategybridge.org/the-bridge/202…

Well worth a read
