The global naval battlespace is rapidly evolving, and automation and artificial intelligence (AI) are at the forefront of modern naval warfare. As the U.S. Navy strives to maintain maritime superiority, its great power competitor, the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN), is accelerating its adoption of AI-driven and automated systems.

This book provides an in-depth analysis of how both the U.S. Navy and the PLAN are integrating automation and AI into their naval intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) strategies. Drawing from historical context, technological advancements, and doctrinal shifts, the study explores how the U.S. Navy has historically been an innovator and early adopter, while the PLAN has rapidly modernized by leveraging existing technologies.

Key topics include:

Defining Automation vs. AI in Naval Warfare – Understanding the distinction between process automation and intelligent decision-making systems.U.S. Navy’s Technological Edge – Examining programs such as the Aegis Combat System and Ship Self Defense System (SSDS).PLAN’s AI-Driven Modernization – Analyzing China’s strategic use of AI to close the technological gap.The Diffusion of AI Technologies – Applying Everett Rogers’ S-Curve model to naval AI adoption.Future Challenges and Strategic Implications – Assessing the long-term impact of AI in maritime strategy and national security.

By comparing the AI and automation strategies of both navies, this book highlights key trends, technological advantages, and potential vulnerabilities in modern naval warfare.
