I agree.
Ukraine would be more than justified to sink every Russian ship operating in the black sea.

There’s a Robert Service involved with this, no? I had thought about a takeoff on “Dangerous Dan McGrew” but I’m a lousy poet.

There’s another post now saying the Moskva has been destroyed.
So that escalated nicely.

As much as I don’t mind seeing the Russians get their noses bloodied, I take no joy in young men on a burning ship. If it were them or me, I would rather it would be them.
A good book that well describes the violence of naval warfare is “Neptune’s Inferno” by James Hornfischer dealing with the naval battles around the Solomon Islands in the second half of 1942 when the US and Japanese fleets still had a degree of parity.

We didn't sink the
Bismarck,
No matter what they say,
For when we saw the German ship,
We sailed the other way.
