Submarine & Other Matters

The misadventures of AUKUS robot AlboGov never cease. I publish on subs, other naval, nuclear weapons & broad political issues. Aussie sub changes are glacial: talk rather than actual new subs. The 1st Collins LOTE may secretly concern the US Combat System & be ready 2029. Trump may decide to cancel the AUKUS Virginia offer due to USN advice it needs all operational SSNs right through to the 2040s. My colleagues Shawn C and Gessler are excellent writers. Pete.

Friday Folly: Cormorant submarine launched flying stealth drone

In the early 2000s Lockheed Martin's "Skunk Works" were developing the Multi-purpose Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (MPUAV) (Cormorant) concept. See further details by scrolling half-way down this useful National Interest article. See Lockheed's sales Youtube below.

The project was cancelled in 2008. What might be the main drawback(s) of operating Cormorant?
