Naval Warfare, Networks & Digital Warfare

How technology, strategy and industry are shaping the next fleet

Unmanned systems, digital integration, and emerging technologies are transforming U.S. naval operations. Breaking Defense’s new eBook takes a deep dive into these innovations and what they mean for the future of naval power.

In February, while icy streets froze Washington, Navy leaders were heading west to San Diego for the annual WEST conference. WEST brings together two sides of the naval community: those focused on large “grey hulls” and those driving cyber and network innovation.

Breaking Defense reporters Mark Pomerleau and Diana Stancy captured how the Navy is integrating unmanned systems, AI, advanced sensing, and distributed maritime concepts to maintain readiness in contested environments.

This eBook curates their reporting, featuring insights from senior Navy leaders and industry innovators on the operational and technological shifts shaping the future of maritime power.
