These weapons entail a higher degree of risk than semi-autonomous (human in the loop) systems,
such as C-RAM. The damage potential of the system depends on how quickly human operators can
identify that the system is failing and take corrective action. In some situations, multiple unintended
engagements could occur.
Another crucially important factor in human-supervised control is the reliability of communications
between the human controller and the autonomous system and what the system will do if it loses
communications. If communications are lost with the human operator, will the system halt
engagements
