The L3 Harris Arabian Fox MAST-13 successfully navigated the crucial waterway, drawing attention from Iran's Revolutionary Guard without any incidents.

On Wednesday, the US Navy marked a historic moment as it sailed its first drone boat, the L3 Harris Arabian Fox MAST-13, through the strategic Strait of Hormuz. This crucial waterway, which connects the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman, is a significant chokepoint for global energy supplies, as one-fifth of all oil traded passes through it. The narrow, busy waterway is often the site of tense encounters between American sailors and Iranian forces.

The 13-meter (41-foot) speedboat, carrying an array of sensors and cameras, managed to navigate the strait without incident under the watchful eye of Iran's Revolutionary Guard. The drone was escorted by two US Coast Guard cutters, the USCGC Charles Moulthrope and USCGC John Scheuerman, ensuring a safe passage for the unmanned vessel.

Navy spokesman Cmdr. Timothy Hawkins confirmed that the Iranians observed the unmanned surface vessel transiting the strait in accordance with international law. Iranian forces, including an Iranian drone and at least one Houdong-class fast-attack vessel, monitored the MAST-13 drone during its voyage.

Fair use is the right to use a copyrighted work under certain conditions without permission of the copyright owner. The doctrine helps prevent a rigid application of copyright law that would stifle the very creativity the law is designed to foster. It allows one to use and build upon prior works in a manner that does not unfairly deprive prior copyright owners of the right to control and benefit from their works. Together with other features of copyright law like the idea/expression dichotomy discussed above, fair use reconciles the copyright statute with the First Amendment.
