The post notes Boeing’s MQ-25A Stingray demonstrator (T-1) was seen embarked on USS Nimitz, indicating continued at-sea integration/testing of a carrier-based unmanned aircraft. This matters because MQ-25 is intended to add organic carrier air wing unmanned capability (notably aerial refueling) and its presence aboard a carrier suggests progress toward operational adoption.
