Uncrewed assets around crewed task-group centres

The proposed force structure places crewed ships at the centre of task groups, with uncrewed assets operating around their outer edges. Several such groups and their flotillas could then combine into a larger task force. The crewed warship remains the organising centre rather than disappearing from the formation. This arrangement is presented as a continuation of the naval practice of grouping supporting vessels around a principal ship. The naming problem matters because calling every vessel an uncrewed asset says little about the wartime function it performs.
