Sea drones are forcing Russia to retreat. Ukraine eyes up even more complex attacks
Ukraine’s powerful sea weapon that is making Russia retreat
- Ukraine's military intelligence agency plans to launch more complex sea-drone strikes against Russian forces next year.
- Current Ukrainian sea-drone operations have successfully forced Russia to adapt its naval strategies, limiting major Black Sea engagements.
- The commander of Group 13, known as "13th", noted that Russian naval vessels now "barely operate" and often hide, demonstrating the drones' effectiveness.
- Group 13 utilises Magura drones, including V5 and V7 variants, which have been credited with multiple strikes on Russian ships and even downing a fighter jet.
- Future drone evolution will focus on deeper artificial intelligence integration for improved targeting and reduced operator workload, alongside expanded co-production with NATO allies like Greece.
