Ukraine's Drone Forces Just Collected 11 Russian Ships in One Night

Original version ·

Remember when Russia thought the Sea of Azov was their safe little backyard pool? Yeah, the Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces just threw a massive toaster into it.

Russia spent years turning the Sea of Azov into an internal lake, thinking they could park their fleet there and chill far away from Ukrainian reach. Then came the night of July 14.

Our newly minted Unmanned Systems Forces decided to throw an overnight pool party. By morning, eleven Russian vessels were successfully hit. Eleven. In a single night.

They didn't even need a traditional navy to pull this off. Just a bunch of remote-controlled explosive jet skis and some very motivated operators sitting in front of monitors with energy drinks. At this rate, the Russian sailors will soon have to resort to pedalos to feel safe.

The Black Sea has already been cleared of their presence, and now the Sea of Azov is rapidly becoming a very exclusive, very crowded underwater museum.
