Before the US Navy did that, the Royal Navy did. The work needs to be done, but it doesn't have to be the US doing it.

Likely soon corporate owned drones will protect commercial shipping routes I would think. Not sure if bad actors (pirates?!) will have their own drones.

I’m sure that China would be happy to take over.
