"The Russian Fleet in Crimea has capitulated": a drone Magura V5 struck 18 enemy vessels - GUR (video)

The compact sea drone can overcome more than 800 kilometers, carrying 250 kilograms of explosives. It is now equipped with new weapons. In a year and a half, the shock sea drone of the Ukrainian production of Magura V5 struck 18 ships of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation.

Details of work of the drone and plans for its improvement were opened by the commander of the Special Forces of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Group 13 with the thirteenth call sign in an interview with Deutsche Welle. The plot states that Magura V5 is the main weapon of the special unit Group 13. Its range is more than 800 kilometers, speed is 80 km/h, and the weight of the combat part is 250 kilograms.

According to GUR, 9 of 18 of the Russian ships affected by the drone were destroyed irrevocably. "In fact, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation in Crimea has capitulated. All the most modern and necessary Russian Federation has already removed from Sevastopol. He was paralyzed by this fleet. He is now eating money from the budget of the Russian Federation, although he cannot perform his functions," the thirteenth "said.

The commander of the special unit noted that the GUR did not chase the increase in the battle part to destroy the ship with one blow. Instead, operators attacked large ships of the Russian Federation of Five or more drones, causing them critical damage. It is difficult to detect Magura V5 radar systems because of its compact size. Magura V5 drones manage to approach the enemy very close to the enemy. When the Russians find a drone, in most cases it is too late.

To combat marine drones, the Russians equip their vessels with machine guns and even attract aviation. According to the GUR officer, this is an important achievement, because part of the hostile aviation is occupied by the patrol of the Black Sea and does not perform other combat missions somewhere. The GUR plans to improve the stroke and autonomy of the drone, as well as equip it with new weapons. The corresponding works are already underway.

"Everything that is in your imagination can be established here. It takes some time in search of engineering solutions, then testing and testing in real fighting. That is, if we see a six -meter board now, we do not prevent us from doing, if there is such a need, 30-meter board, "-said Group commander 13. Recall that the Magura V5 sea drones destroyed the fifth high-speed boat" Tuna "of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which was based in a bay in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
