As opposed to deep water operations, the shallow water (littoral) areas are full of targets of all kinds, including small ships or boats of all sizes, navigational buoys and other objects with radar-reflection signatures, IR, visible- signatures, etc. Therefore, future littoral UUVs (unmanned- underwater-vehicles) should have some amphibian features and/or some similarities to UGVs (unmanned ground vehicles). In this paper, we discuss those futuristic scenarios, in the context of semi-autonomous and/or nearly-autonomous modes of operations.
