Hopefully Z force will have a small deductible on their insurance on the pontoon sections. I was offered a whole bunch of French built bridging equipment a couple of months back (long boring story), the pontoons are surprisingly complex, but lots of them around, the carriers for them, not so much, they would be great little quadcopter targets of opportunity. It will be interesting to see what if any off axis terminal guidance the Ukrainians can muster from their munitions. My bet, it is more than 20 degrees for high apogee paths, and for sea skimmers... more than 90. Would be putting money on the people dowstream getting debris in their fishing nets. Being in the lee only seems like a good idea, assuming that the other side is less resourceful than the party making the assumption. Recent history suggests that Ukraine is resourceful, and adaptive.
