Ukraine Deploys Armed Naval Drones in Black Sea Battles

Modified 'Sea Baby' drones now feature machine guns and aerial capabilities, targeting Russian forces and strategic assets.

Ukraine's 'Sea Baby' naval drones have been upgraded with large-caliber machine guns, automatic targeting systems, and the ability to launch smaller drones.
In a recent operation, these drones engaged Russian helicopters and patrol boats in the Kerch Bay, causing significant damage to Russian aircraft and wounding crew members.
The drones successfully struck a barge transporting military equipment for repairs to the Crimea Bridge, a key target in Ukraine's ongoing campaign.
Footage also shows Ukraine using the drones as platforms to deploy smaller first-person view (FPV) drones during an attack on Russian-held oil platforms off Crimea's coast.
These advancements mark a significant evolution in Ukraine's naval drone strategy, enabling them to engage in direct combat and continue undermining Russia's Black Sea Fleet.
