Or Submarines. But they are in effect drones. Besides which the Navy does use UAVs. Launched from DDGs, CGs, even the Iowa class BBs when they were still in commission. Some are helicopter type drones. Here's one first deployed in 1963.
Here is a Pioneer drone being recovered aboard the Iowa.
“IN 52 SECS BARACK OBAMA SAID HE WOULD CUT AMERICA’S MILITARY DEFENSE SYSTEMS”

Obama “2nd ... I will slow our development of future combat systems....”
Obama doing what he said he would do.
Does the USN deploy modern UAVs, capable of firing cruise missles?
Good point on the submarines.
Why the capitulation? STOP DELAYING THE BOMBS! This strike is America’s job, and they better keep their position as the world’s defenders of freedom. This is a war of freedom vs. repression of speech and free will. This isn’t just Israel’s problem, just like Hitler wasn’t just the Jews problems... If you give these despots something to gain momentum with, the world will pay in the end. Please America don’t let Ahmedenijad enact his twisted wet fantasies and get the nuke and try to destroy Israel to be compared to his hero the Fuhrer...
