If there's nobody aboard, can someone claim it under salvage laws in international waters?

They can try...

(I imagine they'll be a few other USN vessels in the area)

I want one. But I don't know why.

WTH do we need one of those for? I think that the money could of been put to better use taking care of wounded soldiers and the veterans. Wow

This is the stupidest thing I have seen. Another waste of money.
These things do not function without a human. Those humans communicate with this vessel via satelites. It is well known that in the event of a war the enemy will take out our satelites.

Basically this is a sea drone.

War is fought by people not drones. War is won or lost by people not drones. The rule of war is that people die. You can't change that rule.

Wars are fought between the good and the evil and visa versa.
