But the USV technology suffers from technical hurdles, including a lack of a stable platform required for proper communication among the boats. The Ghost--a high-speed attack craft designed by Juliet Marine Systems to protect vital waterways--offers a potential alternative, with stability on the water that the USV technology needs.
