The footage shows an detonation of a training ship after hitting a marine unit of a kamikaze drone. According to the portal, the force of the detonation may indicate the usage of large amounts of explosives in the fresh weapon.

It is unclear whether this was a test of a prototype solution, whether the drone is already serially produced by the Russian Federation. According to the Russians, a fresh weapon could come out of the inside of a warship and then cross a distance of 300 km before hitting the target.

If the drone enters mass production, it could be very bad news for Ukraine. The Russians could usage unmanned seamen to destruct Ukrainian ships stationed in the last large Ukrainian port – Odessa. Ukrainian analysts, however, believe that the Russian equipment parameters do not match the reality.
