Stealth Bombers And Unmanned Boats Showcased At Naval Exercises
The US military has showcased its new ship-sinking capabilities at a pair of summer naval exercises, including the use of stealth bombers and unmanned boats. A US Air Force B-2 bomber launched a precision-guided, stealth air-launched anti-ship cruise missile against a decommissioned vessel, while the US Navy also rolled out unmanned boats to survey and strike targets. The exercises, Valiant Shield and Rim of the Pacific, demonstrated the US military’s growing focus on counter-maritime strike operations. This development was first reported by Breaking Defense.
