  1. This is great news, ingenuity and hard work of the Ukrainians keeps paying off. Now these drones can be used in anti-ship and anti-air role

  2. Meanwhile, russians are roping logs to 60 years old rusty tanks and posting that as evidence of their ingenuity!

    Edit. Yeah, not an honest comparison but i dont care. russia fucking sucks!

  3. Shit down from a sea drone ? Almost looks like it. Ah didn’t look at the text.

  4. Say goodbye to the Kerch Bridge now.

    This was just a final test and warning to Russia that definitively says, “you can’t stop us in the Black Sea now and you are in danger everywhere… in the air, on the surface and under the surface”

    If helicopters can’t go after surface drones and Russian naval vessels can’t without a real fear of marine surface drones and underwater drones… this becomes a very serious problem for Russia in the Black Sea and the Kerch Bridge which only has anti air and smoke to defend it now.

  5. I bet they first were laughing in that MI-8 helicopter.

  6. A serious threat to russian aviation patrolling the Black Sea. This technology is still in its infancy though. Ukraine needs more investment from partners to improve the weapon. You can bet that the russians are working on countermeasures as we speak.

  7. Just when the Russians thought it was safe to continue deploying rotary wing assets against unmanned surface vessels, Ukraine disabuses them of that notion. Same way they’ve disabused the Kremlin about a functioning Black Sea Fleet.

    Happy hunting Kyiv! May more victories follow.

  8. I can ear the cheers in the drones command control room from my bed 🤣
