Royal Navy sea-launch trials of Nyan one-way effector from ship catapult

The UK Royal Navy demonstrated shipborne launch of the jet-powered Nyan one-way attack drone using a deck-mounted catapult while underway, with autonomous navigation to a programmed target. This indicates a move toward integrating low-cost loitering/kamikaze munitions into naval platforms as part of a 'hybrid' fleet concept, expanding maritime strike options beyond traditional missiles.
