In Video: Russian Lancet UAV Struck Patrol Boat, Probably From US, In Rear Mykolaiv Region

New footage from Ukraine showed a successful attack of the Russian Lancet UAV on a patrol boat in service with the Ukrainian Navy. The attack took place in the Ukrainian rear far from the frontlines. 

Russian UAV struck the patrol boat sailing along the Southern Bug River near the city of Mykolaiv. The target was successfully struck at a large distance of about 50 kilometers from the nearest Russian positions.

The attack was filmed by another Russian reconnaissance UAV, which faced no obstacles in the deep Ukrainian rear areas.

Judging by the footage, the Russian Lancet struck the cabin area on the right side of the boat.

 

 

Some experts supposed that the target of the Russian strike was one of the Island-class patrol boats from the United States transferred to Ukraine. In total, the United States handed over 4 Island-class patrol boats to the Kiev regime, after they were disposed in the US. One of them, the Slavyansk, was destroyed along with part of the crew back in March 2022. The other boats are the Starobilsk, Fastov and Sumy boats, which were still in service.

After the beginning of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine, the Lancet drone was upgraded and the hostilities revealed that it could easily reach targets at a range of up to 50 km, which significantly expanded the list of targets being hit in the Ukrainian rear regions. LINK The strikes with the Lancets are often launched in pair with the ZALA reconnaissance drone, which searches for targets and points the Lancet at them.

and soon there will be 10 or so small shallow water boats with 3 12.9mm machine guns to quickly transport soldiers, say across the dienper as provided by the swedish governmnet

under the swedish government’s homepage regeringen.se the agreement signed with usa is available for scrutiny under the heading defence cooperation agreement. clear case of letting go of any kind of sovereignty.

i dont think thats relevant. they bring this random.

senile nazi holm cannot think

jens holm

thats fact and normal oppinions. if you feed you lame pigions better you will get news even from sweden too.

i think you miss the point. the lancet is now able to hit well into the ukrainian rear. the target is immaterial. the war won’t be won or lost by who sinks the biggest ships anyway.

In the Crumbling Empire

true, the war will not be won or lost based on what ships are sunk but it is a major humiliation for russian to lose so many ships.

jens holm

true. its a small one between many. range matters by missel seize.

i sure they try to empty in tourisme as well. we see here in denmark. more choose vacation in peace and even more germens with children are booked for the summer.

jens holm

the reason for the sinking very much are , they can export to fx egypt.

jens holm

compare the 400,000 dead ukie amerikan mercenaries to the 40,000 dead russians–mainly convicts

jens holm

have you counted them your self.

Антон

what large ships? nazis sank 2 missile boats (less 1000 tons of displacement) and damaged 2 or 3 not moving landing ships in bases and a submarine in dry dock, that’s all, this is not even 10% of the black sea fleet power, while they lost all their capital ships, many speedboats and thousands of unlucky marines in suicidal attempts to landing on russian shores.

you seem to forget the sinking of the moskva cruiser. 9380 tons, tsezar kunikov large landing ship 2768 tons. patrol ship sergey kotov 1800 tons, possibly the olenogorsky gornyak 3600 tons etc etc. look up list of ship losses during the russo-ukrainian war on wikipedia. and it does not matter if the ships were moving or in dry-dock.

In the Crumbling Empire

someone needs to be a complete imbecile to put a ship in dry-dock in a war zone. they must have their heads so far up their @$$ that they have turned themselves inside out.

jens holm

i looked too. some handfull losses is far out. and the rest is not operate well.

firstly “lancet” flew at 40 km behind front line, then in struck several targets at ~70 behind the line, some sources says about possibility to increase up to 100 km. modernization process is going on.

im sure all there improve and make new kinds well and well.

so we cant count on written old facts. some also has a range which is smaller vessel + missile.
