Not an immediate threat, surely, but probably wise from Ukraine's point of view. Russia must have been looking at an amphibious landing in or near Odesa during the next stage of their special operation.

The Russians have also been using their amphibious assets to move supplies and equipment in the Sea of Azov, especially when they close the Kerch Strait bridge due to potential incoming attacks.

Ballcocks, damage to ships not as bad as first thought. Though I would imagine sensitive equipment will be damaged.

Samara refinery totally shut down due to damage. It shows how accurate the drone attacks are.

I do love the simplicity of the allegedly shot down Ukrainian drone, and even the tail logo

Update analysis on the construction of the drone.

1. This is an update to an earlier thread on a curious Ukrainian #drone. Not much was known then about this drone but there is now a shaky video to analyse…..

​​​​​​​I would say the main fuselage section is a bog standard section of waterpipe machined down, or they have got the manufacturers to produced a thin walled section for them.
