Guarding African Waters: Addressing the Rising Threat of Uncrewed Vessels
Leveraging US Navy Tactics to Counter Uncrewed Vessel Menace
The threat of uncrewed vessels (USVs) to Africa’s maritime safety is becoming more serious. Criminal groups may start using USVs as they become cheaper. The US Navy is using USVs and AI in the Indian Ocean and Red Sea, according to the article of Eurasia Review. African navies can learn from this to improve their own security.
African countries can use USVs alongside traditional ships to better protect their waters. Learning from the US Navy’s approach can help them detect and respond to threats, like USVs used by criminals. It’s important for African countries to strengthen their laws and enforcement to deal with this new challenge.
