UK unveils unmanned undersea warfare system to counter Russian threats

Atlantic Bastion aims to create an advanced hybrid naval force integrating ships, submarines, and aircraft with uncrewed vessels. These assets will be connected through AI-powered acoustic detection technology and a digital targeting web, which the navy said enables faster decision-making against adversaries.

First Sea Lord General Sir Gwyn Jenkins stated, "A revolutionary underwater network is taking shape...More autonomous, more resilient, more lethal – and British built."
