Aquí todavía peleándose con el AIP del S-80 cuando en otros países ya se están construyendo UUV de largo alcance...

Con todos los respeto, eso no tiene ningun sentido. Que parece que todos esos paises tan listos tienen flotas de "minisubmarinos nucelares cuanticos". Lo primero es que para ser "despreciable" el construirte tus propios submarinos resulta que solo puedes despreciar a un puñadito de paises que cuentas con los dedos de la mano. Segundo es que si no te gusta el S80, no entiendo muy bien porque te entusiasma tanto "powerpointismo" sobre drones. Porque Drones submarinos al dia de hoy operativos hay entre cero y ninguno. Y en prototipo, con los dedos de la mano de Billie Joe, el del aserradero. Asi que decir que poco menos que todo el mundo esta liado en esto es bastante inexacto, aderezarlo con el habitual "tirito" al S80 ya tal.

Esta mania de "lo nuestro es puta mierda" aunque este flotando, para despues aplaudir con las orejas a cualquier chorras que aparezca con un Power Point nos lo tenemos que hacer mirar.

Todo sin menosprecio de los drones submarinos (que pienso que no van a existir de manera util en treinta años por mera cuestion de comunicaciones) y sin menoscabo de las risas que me pienso hacer cuando se "descubra" como se les va a tener que dar energia.

Contrato de la US Navy para el desarrollo del AVUSM ("Amphibious Vehicle for Unmanned Surface Mobility", 6/4/2022): https://www.defense.gov/News/Contracts/ ... e/2991897/

...
Martin Defense Group LLC,* Honolulu, Hawaii, is awarded a $14,967,196 cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for the development of an Amphibious Vehicle for Unmanned Surface Mobility (AVUSM). This contract provides for technology development and maturation with the objective of transitioning the technology /capability to Navy and/or Marine Corps acquisition programs. The AVUSM system provides the capability of autonomously delivering a lay-flat fuel line hose from a floating embarkment platform, through the surf-zone, to above a high water mark line for fuel delivery in support of Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations. This is also known as a Reach-to-the-Beach capability. Work will be performed in Honolulu, Hawaii, and is expected to be completed by April 5, 2025. The maximum dollar value, including a 36-month base period, one 12-month option period and one 36-month option period that, if exercised, can run concurrent with the base, is $14,967,196. Fiscal 2022 research, development, test and evaluation (Navy) funds in the amount of $285,001 are obligated at time of award. No funds will expire at the end of the current fiscal year. This contract was competitively procured under the (N00014-22-S-B001), Office of Naval Research long range broad agency announcement (BAA) for Navy and Marine Corps science and technology. Since proposals are received throughout the year under the long range BAA, the number of proposals received in response to the solicitation is unknown. The Office of Naval Research, Arlington, Virginia, is the contracting activity (N00014-22-C-1015).

Gracias pero sigue sin parecerme algo relevante o útil.

Informe del GAO, "UNCREWED MARITIME SYSTEMS Navy Should Improve Its Approach to Maximize Early Investments": https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/ ... 104567.pdf

...
Conclusions

The Navy has identified uncrewed maritime systems as an important affordable capability for future warfare. However, the Navy has yet to develop a basic cost estimate for these capabilities and, therefore, does not know how these efforts fit in with future ship planning. This is critical as the Navy is likely to face continued budget pressure as it attempts to build up its fleet. Portfolio management offers the Navy an approach to optimize its uncrewed maritime systems by balancing resources across multiple efforts and linking its efforts to its strategic objectives. However, if the Navy maintains its current approach of managing these systems through its divided portfolios that were not intended to share resources, it will likely continue to make investment decisions that minimize the importance of the digital infrastructure necessary to operate these vehicles. This divided approach is also unlikely to help the Navy achieve the collective objectives it set for its uncrewed maritime system efforts.

Moreover, the Navy is unlikely to fully realize the benefits of prototyping because it has yet to develop: (1) evaluation criteria to measure the readiness of prototypes to enter into acquisition, (2) schedules that demonstrate how prototype efforts align with key investment decisions, and (3) prototype plans that illustrate how the Navy intends to mature technology and achieve certifications. If the Navy does not implement these practices, it may not get the most of the billions of dollars it is investing in these prototypes and would also likely begin future uncrewed acquisitions with more risk than planned.
