The U.S. Navy is seeking prototype designs of its future large unmanned surface vessel for use in autonomous navigation and afloat strike missions.
Specifically, the service branch asked industry to submit LUSV design concepts that would combine features from government warfare systems and commercial technology platforms to facilitate interoperability with manned surface combatants for anti-surface warfare activities, Naval Sea Systems Command said Friday.
