520    To better understand trends in Chinese unmanned systems 
       research, development, acquisition, and employment, and 
       their potential implications, RAND undertook exploratory 
       analysis to lay an initial foundation for future research 
       on China's development and use of unmanned systems, 
       including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned 
       undersea vehicles (UUVs), and unmanned surface vessels 
       (USVs). The exploratory analysis focused on identifying 
       sources related to Chinese development of maritime 
       unmanned systems, including UUVs, USVs, and UAVs, with an 
       emphasis on systems intended for the maritime environment 
       because of their relevance to maritime territorial 
       disputes in the East and South China Seas; understanding 
       the roles that China sees for unmanned systems; analyzing 
       trends in Chinese development of UUVs, USVs, and maritime 
       UAVs, including the key technologies Chinese researchers 
       are pursuing; exploring how China could employ unmanned 
       systems in its maritime territorial disputes in the East 
       and South China Seas; and identifying areas for further 
       research and potential future developments. The remainder 
       of this report highlights the key findings of this 
       exploratory research project and presents some preliminary
       analysis of their potential implications.
