How uncrewed boats support mine clearance

Can modular uncrewed boats perform missions beyond carrying explosives?

Yes; mine clearance already uses uncrewed surface vessels, normally several working with a crewed support ship, though British procurement has left too few available forward.

A practical package may pair one mine-clearance vessel with three or four USVs. Discussion of a possible Strait of Hormuz mission exposed the gap between that concept and the small number of working systems actually deployed. The example reinforces the video's broader argument that useful technology still needs sufficient numbers, maintenance, and an operational formation.
