Ukrainian drones just bagged 20 Russian ships in a single night

Original version ·

Remember when they said a landlocked-ish country couldn't win a sea war? Well, someone forgot to tell the guys piloting the remote controls.

The newly minted Unmanned Systems Forces of Ukraine went on an absolute rampage. They didn't just target one or two patrol boats; they went for a full-blown combo. Twenty Russian vessels were hit in the Black Sea in a single night.

Usually, hitting a couple of ships makes the evening news. Hitting twenty is less of a tactical operation and more of an aggressive marine eviction. The Black Sea fleet is starting to look less like a navy and more like an underwater museum of Russian military ambition.

At this rate, the biggest threat to Russian sailors isn't even missiles anymore; it's just the sheer lack of parking space on the seabed.
