A community for news and discussion around various types of unmanned vehicles whether they be UAVs, USVs, UGVs or otherwise. The scope of this community includes civil and military contexts.

News and discussion of all types of systems designed to counter and protect from unmanned vehicles are welcome too!

Not to be pedantic, but I also include any kind of practical robotics, even if it is stationary, part of "unmanned vehicles", so a stationary turret is fine to post here.

Anyone is welcome to post here, and the scope of content can include anything from sharing an unmanned vehicle you made yourself to articles about the political implications of unmanned vehicles in society.

Rules: Follow the spirit of Sopuli moderation rules, unmanned vehicles are like most other things inherently political but please keep in mind the focus of this community!

ASELSAN also emphasizes swarm-enabled operational concepts for the KILIÇ family. This approach reflects a broader evolution in autonomous naval warfare where distributed sensing and coordinated attacks increasingly replace isolated single-vehicle operations. In practical terms, multiple autonomous underwater vehicles operating simultaneously can complicate acoustic tracking and create uncertainty regarding the primary threat direction. Even relatively small underwater vehicles may become operationally disruptive if they force an adversary to slow maneuver cycles, alter routes, or maintain continuous anti-submarine vigilance in congested maritime chokepoints.
