Or maybe drones have transformed the spectrum of naval warfaring.

Drones don't make a big difference to naval warfare because need large ones to have the range and carry big warhead. Then they need speed to cover that distance. That means have basically invented the anti-ship missile. Ships also have the space to carry defenses. The missiles then either get smarter, stealthier, and supersonic to get through.

The big recent change in naval warfare is that anti-ship missiles have gotten common. Ukraine used locally built ones to sink a Russian cruiser. Yemen and Iran have been making them.

I think drones and shoulder launched weapons has forced a rethinking of 20th century weaponry.
