Title How robot submarines fight to keep the UK's lights on in North Sea drone battle Degree of recognition National Media name/outlet iNews Media type Web Duration/Length/Size "Big read" Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 25/12/24 Description As Russia likely deploys autonomous submarines to map and monitor vital data cables in UK waters, the “drone war” that has developed in the skies above the battlefields of Ukraine is slowly but surely moving to the seas.
Dr Adam Fenton, assistant professor at Coventry University’s Centre for Peace and Security, and a specialist in uncrewed naval warfare, said: “Part of the problem is that in international waters, Nato and allies are restricted because vessels of other nations are permitted to operate there without interference from other countries. This includes conducting ‘scientific research’ or deploying undersea drones.
