Another ship successfully converted to submarine! Great victory for Mother Russia!
I wonder if Taiwan is looking into these boat-drones considering their successes. Could be extremely useful in keeping any Chinese ships from ever landing.
- Every single military in the world will be watching the usage of all sorts of drones in this conflict. Even if you're America or China you need to learn how to defeat them cost-effectively
  
  The US just cancelled a major helicopter project because drones do the job cheaper
  
  Drones are becoming a huge game changer.
  Even simple unarmed $300 drones with an IR camera are proving to be extremely effective. The level of live battlefield information and situational awareness they are bringing to commanders on the ground is at least equivalent to what a platoon of recon troops can offer.
  Next up are the drones capable of carrying light loads like air dropped grenades or explosives than can take our expensive vehicles like aircraft. The return on investment for these systems are insane.
  
  For few hundred $ you get capability that formerly was only provided by ATGMs, and it's several times lighter as well, not to mention increased situational awareness. Every military worth their salt will have to study it and countermeasures
  
  Especially considering war is always a battle between offence and defence and we’ve been in a defence stage for so long with modern armoured vehicles.
  
  For sure, hasnt the whole world learned that heavy expensive vehicles can be countered by relatively cheap munitions?
  Even without air superiority Ukraine has made MBT's basically useless.
- boat-drones are just manually guided torpedos with extra steps
  
  Actually fewer steps. You don't need an entire ship or submarine.
- It's all fun and war games until an entire flotilla of 和平-dec shows up.
Ukraines artificial reef program is coming along nicely
You love to see it, Slavi Ukraini!

- A future new reef for Sebastian 🦀
Who's for the black sea fleet chart with the Xs on it?
- Far left, second from the bottom was the new addition
  
  This is actually kind of cool to see, comparing it to the fleet in general.
  
  What does the circle indicate?
  
  Delicious
  
  Thank you kindly for doing the Lord's work. You rock.
Don't think of it as Russia losing another ship. Think of it as Ukraine helping Russia launch a new submarine. :)
- They have the world’s largest submarine fleet!
  And they’re so advanced, they don’t even need to surface for the crew!
So, exactly the kind of ship Russia would need to retake Crimea. Interdasting
- Also used for transport of cargo. Whew russians never had problems with logistics, right?
- I think I read there's 3 more to go, and then there's the bridge. With those 4 things gone, it'll be pretty isolating.

The only pity was Tucker Carlson took an airplane
It landed
Beautiful
Love it!
