Russian corvette Ivanovets sunk by six Ukrainian Magura drones – Budanov
The Russian missile boat Ivanovets was destroyed by Ukrainian-made Magura V5 naval drones, Head of the Main Intelligence Agency of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kyrylo Budanov said in a comment to TheWarZone.
“The attack took place more than 130 miles from the nearest Ukrainian port, though it is possible the USVs could have been launched from a mothership further out into the Black Sea. Budanov declined to specify the USV’s launch point. During the destruction of the specified ship, six direct hits by naval drones were made to the hull of the ship. As a result of the damage, the ship rolled astern and sank," it is reported in the Telegram channel of the Main Intelligence Agency of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine on Sunday.
Magura (Marine Autonomous Security Unmanned Robotic Vehicle) is a multi-purpose system that allows for surveillance, reconnaissance, mine warfare, search and rescue and combat missions, the agency said.
