The Navy completed an Unmanned Carrier Aviation Demonstration (UCAD) of its MQ-25 unmanned air system prototype in December aboard USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77), laying the groundwork for future carrier-based UAS operations.
The MQ-25 will be the world’s first operational, carrier-based unmanned aircraft and is integral to the Air Wing of the Future Family of Systems (AWotF FoS). Its initial operating capability (IOC) as an aerial refueling tanker will extend the range, operational capability and power projection of the carrier air wing (CVW) and carrier strike group (CSG). GHWB is operating in the Atlantic Ocean in support of naval operations to maintain maritime stability and security in order to ensure access, deter aggression and defend U.S., allied and partner interests.

USS Zumwalt (DDG 1000) is a guided-missile destroyer of the United States Navy. This ship was the first ship of her class and was the first ship to be so named. The USS Zumwalt has stealth capabilities, so it has a radar image like a fishing boat, despite its large size. On 7 December 2015, the Zumwalt began sea trials to join the Pacific Fleet. Zumwalt was also planned to be assigned to Baltimore. The Zumwalt class ships are designed to handle a variety of missions. Unlike previous destroyers designed primarily for deep-sea warfare, the Zumwalt class is designed to support the ground attack in addition to strong anti-air, anti-surface, and underwater warfare capabilities. An important component of the Zumwalt's arsenal is the Long Range Land Attack Projectile (LRLAP), a projectile that has a range of 190 km inland from cannon fire. Source : MegaTech
