Unmanned 'Ghost Ship' makes record breaking run through the Panama Canal
Wow! This is the future of the US Navy at least for supply ships
Pentagon ‘Ghost Fleet’ Ship Makes Record-Breaking Trip from Mobile to California

Quote:
One of the Pentagon’s two Overlord large unmanned surface vessels conducted a first-ever Panama Canal transit, sailing thousands of miles from the Gulf Coast to California in a major test of autonomous systems with few reliability issues along the way, the chief of naval operations told USNI News.
The 59-meter USV, which was converted from a regular high-speed craft to a USV prototype last year, departed Mobile, Ala., on Sept. 18. After operating in the Gulf of Mexico for some time, it made a Panama Canal transit and arrived in Port Hueneme, Calif., on Nov. 5, according to data provided to USNI News from the MarineTraffic vessel tracking service.
