☆ Ukraine's exploding naval drones are hunting down Russian vessels like tugboats after the big Black Sea Fleet warships fell back

Read previewUkraine is using its arsenal of exploding naval drones to hunt down smaller Russian vessels instead of the larger Black Sea Fleet warships, which Moscow pulled back to reduce their vulnerability to attacks. Kyiv has relied on a fleet of homemade Magura V5 and Sea Baby drones packed with explosives to carry out devastating missions against ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet throughout the war. Russia has relied on these types of defenses — along with moored barges — to try to protect its ports from Ukraine's naval drones. Last month, for instance, Kyiv used its naval drones to conduct multiple operations against Russian patrol boats near Crimea. Lacking a proper navy of its own, Kyiv has relied on naval drones and long-range anti-ship missiles to wage an asymmetrical style of warfare against the Black Sea Fleet.

The attack marks Ukraine's latest strike against the Russian Black Sea Fleet. The video cuts just as the Ukrainian drone slams into the vessel. A Magura V5 sea drone destroyed a russian speedboat in temporarily occupied Crimea. Ukrainian forces have heavily relied on their arsenals of Magura V5s and Sea Babies — another type of exploding naval drone — to damage and destroy scores Russian warships in the Black Sea. Still, Kyiv has managed to find success in targeting Russian vessels with its drones.

Ukraine's Directorate of Intelligence published photos of the unannounced delivery of a US-made helicopter. The helicopter's livery suggests the US bought a Black Hawk back from a private firm to send to Kyiv. This delivery comes unannounced, as the UH-60 Black Hawk was not included in any of the aid packages and its supply to the Armed Forces of Ukraine was not mentioned by officials. —Defence intelligence of Ukraine (@DI_Ukraine) February 21, 2023However, Defence Blog was quick to notice that the Black Hawk, in addition to the Ukrainian flags and roundels, wears a peculiar livery. This livery was saw in the past on helicopters of the US firm Ace Aeronautics, which specializes in converting older Black Hawk helicopters divested by the US Army for the civilian market.
