Ukrainians might very well go for these kamikaze USV. Ulaq said they can produce 100 of these in a year:

These look good but they have quite a high profile above the water. That increases their RCS for airborne radars and radar horizon for surface radars.

Isn't there a way to adjust the buoyancy to partially submerge it, or even only leave a snorkel and antenna above the water? That would drastically lower its RCS while still allowing for comms and air breathing engines.

But with more stuff underwater drag also increases so range may be to low or speed decreased
