On April 13, the Armed Forces of Ukraine were able to find and attack the Ukrainian Neptune rocket flagship of the Russian Navy "Moscow". As a result, the ship went to the bottom. It happened due to the cloudy weather and self -confidence of Russian sailors. This was reported in the material of the Ukrainian Pravda. According to journalists, on April 13, the Russian rocket cruiser stood 120 km from the shore in the Black Sea.
The Russians knew that at that time the APU had no enabled radars who could have found targets at such a distance. Because of this, the invaders felt safe. However, at about 4:00 pm Neptune, the operator of the Neptune Missile Complex - a regular radar that does not get at such distances, showed a big goal 120 km from the shore. Only the Russian cruiser "Moscow" could be the object of this size. Ukrainian rocket launchers say that the weather has helped to catch the purpose of the invaders.
Above the sea stood dense clouds, the signal from the radar reflected from them to water and back. As a result, he was able to reach the ship and find it. The interlocutors told reporters that the Russian military was convinced that the Ukrainian forces would not be able to reach them. In addition, the occupiers did not even prepare the air defense systems. The Armed Forces said that the cruiser "Moscow" was constantly seen with the help of satellite images, but could not reach it.
However, on April 13, the rocket launcher entered the Ukrainian missile defeat zone. After it was recorded, the Ukrainian troops released two "Neptune". Ukrainian Truth journalists were able to get a picture of this launch of rockets. The sources said that the "Neptune" had to overcome the distance in about 6 minutes. However, no one knew whether they achieved the goal, because Baracar UAV operators refused to fly to the ship for checking.
The Ukrainian military realized that the cruiser was struck when he suddenly moved and tried to hide behind the gas "towers of Boyko". In addition, the flagship of the Navy of the Russian Federation at the same time began to swim four ships. However, it was at this point that a storm began in the Black Sea, and the rescue operation was complicated. As soon as Moscow had a tugboat from the Crimea, the Armed Forces realized that the situation on the cruiser was critical.
We will remind, on December 13, journalists also wrote that at the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukrainian missiles "Neptune" failed. In February, the launch of shells was unsuccessful. As a result of the audit, it was possible to find out that all "Neptune" failed one detail. Ukrainian intelligence suggests that it was a diversion. Earlier, on May 12, the Odessa Ova reported that the Ukrainian military was able to destroy the Russian ship "Vsevolod Bobrov".
