The Royal Navy’s drone-focused training centers on improving how ships detect, classify, and respond to fast, unmanned threats. Crews rehearse full “find-to-engage” scenarios, including swarms of drones and high-speed attacks, using live and simulated targets. Training also strengthens damage-control readiness during complex incidents. The Navy is aligning sensors and weapons into a coordinated, layered air-defence approach, while exploring more hybrid platforms designed to command and work alongside uncrewed systems.
