  1. Great piece… Tried to make this concept of “thinking” a navy (and war college) priority. Was the first effort cut because it was considered much too expensive for ROE. Was involved in initial concept of operation development during laser development. Response was; ” we’ll worry about it when we get it on the ship – if it ever makes it that far.” We learned by modeling the laser charesterics it could be a great asset to knock out select drones (circa 2007/8). And where are we today???
