It could do that by "disgorging" swarms of smaller and cheaper suicide UUVs. The underwater domain is perfect for loitering-swarm-technology and saturating/clearing enemy defences. I'm assuming one of ORCA's first missions will be to patrol undersea fibreoptic communication cables. Something long overdue.
From my humble perspective, the real test of the ORCA will be realized in the underwater drone’s military effectiveness, it’s ability to dovetail with other military assets, maintenance costs and requirements, along with its service life. Time will tell and as global temperatures continue to rise, we may know the effectiveness of this new weapon sooner rather than later. 🤔 👍🏻🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸👍🏻
It is quite something for Russia to have an atomic powered atomic warhead armed autonomous torpedo that goes 160 knots with unlimited range. Very much a doomsday weapon. But Navies will hear and detect it for some distance. It is another thing to have a conventionally powered autonomous, UWAV, nuclear tipped that might go thousands of miles but at five knots per hour. A speed and design that no sensor will ever hear or detect. Wonder if Putin ever thought about that.
Nice, I was just thinking picture this the Orca had a compartment on top that was filled with twenty tons of TNT? So just in case it happens to fall into the enemy's hands it has a fail-safe plan?
Your laboured intro and advert took up nearly two minutes of this short, but interesting, video. I'd be looking to equip it with a salvo of lightweight torpedoes and optimise it for missions such as the defence of Taiwan.
With drone technology would think they could design underwater drone submarines to launch missle defense, nuclear weapons, tomahawk missles, anti ship missles basically replace the whole military with underwater drones and have them stay stationary underwater until they need to use them. Those drones can be nuclear missles and also launch their own drones in the process.
Wondering how communications and handling will be done for unmanned versions, usually for traditional ones you need long antennas to communicate but for deep depths you lose contact usually is not a problem for manned submarines for obvious reasons but for unmanned versions who is going to control them? Just means 2 things either they are not made for deep waters or their are planning putting AIs which is kinda crazy
@@offshorebear like heaven and earth difference, AI technology its in diapers to follow complex operations specially military ones not even the most advanced UAVs today are given free reign to be controlled by an AI it has an human operator behind.
@@SaxyPlayer96 The more salt in the water, the better they can reflect waves. I made remote controlled subs myself but around 5m deep in a large pond small lake is the maximum, a pool is a little better reception, salt water 1m max. depth. This is of course standard frequencies but getting around being reflected by just "better underwater transmission methods" seems improbable putting it mildly. No way to get around laws of physics. Salt waterr surface reflects. The way actual subs get around this is by having ultra low frequencies to letthem know there is a message topside. The speed at which you can communicate at those frequencies is terribly low so getting them up to receive at higher frequency is easiest.
Yea, because there's no way it's faster than that. The Navy or Boeing would never understate the vehicles speed, depth or range would they??!! See, if we were Russia, we'd say it cruised at hypersonic speeds underwater, no missiles can defeat it !

Five to eight knots lol, too slow to intercept subs or weapons in this day n age of modern warfare, sounds like a waste of taxpayers money with a false sense of security.
Have to say, with Boeing's consistent failures in air and space lately, I'm not surprised they started building things that don't have to leave the ground. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They allready used the hardware in the tidal wave nukes they built. China owns half of Boeing with total access (deal brokered by then VP Biden to sell planes) China law is if you want to do any buissiness with them you must give the China Governement half your company and total access to all records. Also why Walmart, that once was USA first is now called China mart since not long after Sam died. Xi is cochairman of both companies.
