This paper presents preliminary results of ongoing researches devoted to use agent based simulation to investigate political, military, economical social infrastructural and informative effects of new underwater tactics based on swarms of autonomous unmanned underwater vehicles attacking cargos and tankers with a single or a group coordinated approach. The basic idea is to use relatively cheap UAFs (Unmanned Autonomous Fighters) bringing small economic torpedoes or mines to create consistent threats to international commercial trades’ routes and to critical infrastructures or to mount a blockade to a hostile country. To investigate such innovative tactic a discrete event, stochastic agent based simulator has been created and preliminary on going experimentations are summarized.

Abstract
This paper presents preliminary results of ongoing researches devoted to use agent based simulation to investigate political, military, economical social infrastructural and informative effects of new underwater tactics based on swarms of autonomous unmanned underwater vehicles attacking cargos and tankers with a single or a group coordinated approach. The basic idea is to use relatively cheap UAFs (Unmanned Autonomous Fighters) bringing small economic torpedoes or mines to create consistent threats to international commercial trades’ routes and to critical infrastructures or to mount a blockade to a hostile country. To investigate such innovative tactic a discrete event, stochastic agent based simulator has been created and preliminary on going experimentations are summarized.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
