The Ghost Fleet Overlord program, also known as LUSV, proved its readiness to be introduced into the armed forces last year. During the tests, the prototype drone traveled over 4,700 miles in autonomous mode, after which it joined the US Navy exercises, where it also traveled almost 1,000 miles without the intervention of the crew. Later, surface drones were equipped with weapons, including SM-6 missiles.
