USS Utah: The Forgotten (Drone) Battleship Sunk at Pearl Harbor

*Robert Farley* *History, Americas* Back in July, the United States almost went to war over the downing of a drone along the Iranian border. This is not, strangely enough, the first time that an attack against the United States began with violence against a drone. *Key Point: *Utah was the oldest battleship to serve in World War II, but not the oldest to serve as a battleship, an honor which goes to USS Arkansas.

When large corporations fail, or go bankrupt, typically their subsidiary units are broken off and snapped up by former rivals, competitors and speculators; their hard assets, if any, may be sold off for pennies on the dollar. The new owners may post armed guards with pump shotguns and pistols to secure the buildings, factories, equipment, machinery and other hard assets that they have procured. Sometimes they may decide to physically raze the old buildings or factories to the ground, and build new ones; or perhaps sell everything off to yet another third party. The disposition of th...

The U.S. Navy's Next Deadly Weapon: AIP Submarines

*Robert Farley* *Security, Asia* New technology is changing the game. *Key point:* The best response for the U.S. Navy may not be to invest in conventional subs. Over the past decade, air-independent propulsion (AIP) for submarines has spread rapidly around the world. The technology, which allows conventionally powered submarines to operate without access to outside air, has the potential the shift the balance away from the big nuclear attack submarines (SSNs) that have dominated undersea warfare since the 1950s, and back towards small conventional boats. In global terms, this m...
