U.S. Navy’s Latest Unmanned Surface Ships Call In Japan
U.S. Navy's latest drone boats, USV (unmanned surface vessel) Mariner and LUSV (large unmanned surface vessel) Ranger, made a port call at Yokosuka of Kanagawa Prefecture in Japan on August 18, a very rare opportunity to see them in Japan, including Sasebo in western Japan.

Mariner has a dark blue exterior on the lower half of the hull, and Ranger has a gray hull.
The U.S. Pacific Fleet, headquartered in Hawaii, began its second multi-domain unmanned capabilities exercise May 1, 2023. The Fleet’s exercise, called Unmanned Systems Integrated Battle Problem (UxS IBP) 23.1, is a tactical warfighting rehearsal event conducted by U.S. 3rd Fleet headquartered in San Diego, California to test and develop fleet-centric concepts and capabilities, according to the U.S. Navy.
