Greymatters - since the advent of the long range bomber our principal role has been that of a buffer and a killing ground. Look at where the Pinetree line was located.
Harley - all they have to do is build a 25,000 tonne boat that will bust through 10 feet of multiyear ice and maintain a convoy speed of 25 knots.
I do think that one of the jobs of the AOPVs could be as tenders for maintaining an underwater network of sensors and weapons, both fixed and mobile, as well as remotely operated and semi-autonomous (subject to "weapons free" protocols).
