Personnel and maintenance costs would be much less, need for logistics is greatly reduced, and the ships and drones can be engineered to perform at specifications that would not be possible if they were manned. It’s coming.

And it's not like someone like the Iranians could confuse your drones - or is it

Of course there are kinks to work out, but if they’re preprogrammed before launch like a tomohawk/harpoon with waypoints then no.
