According to him, operators of the 1st Separate Unmanned Systems Forces Center struck a Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) border guard vessel near Yurkino – a settlement in occupied Crimea.
The video shows a Ukrainian strike drone approaching the vessel and hitting its starboard superstructure. It appears that a group of Russian sailors were standing on the starboard side at the time of the strike, likely attempting to shoot down the approaching drone. The exact losses from the attack are not yet known.
This vessel is designed for controlling and protecting ports and ships, as well as creating a tactical air defense and anti-submarine defense line. Its length is 49.5 meters, it has a crew of 28 people, it can operate autonomously for up to 10 days, and its operating range is 3540 km.
It is reported that its armament includes 16 Igla man-portable anti-aircraft systems, an AK-176 artillery gun, 14.5 mm machine gun mounts, and six-barrel anti-aircraft guns.
As R. Brovdi wrote on social media, Ukrainian strikes last night targeted various Russian military facilities in the operational zone of the occupying forces.
