Blue Dart 2

Abstract

This project is a focused experiment exploring the asymmetric attack threat posed by unmanned maritime systems (UMS) built using publicly available information and low cost, commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components. Independent red teams consisting of college students with little or no maritime experience were sponsored in order to demonstrate the capability of educated, motivated individuals to design and develop UMS homemade devices to meet specific mission profiles. The program culminated in a maritime field demonstration with the UMS red teams engaging countermeasure system blue teams.
