They claimed to have sunk a Russian Patrol Boat a few weeks ago, but that turned out to be false. I’ll wait for confirmation.

Neptune is a Ukrainian anti-ship cruise missile developed by Luch Design Bureau. Neptune’s design is based on the Soviet Kh-35 anti-ship missile.

Yep, the Ukes uploaded the video of the strike they said on Essen which proved their complicity in killing the container ship, they previously claimed was sank by the Russians. They lie all the time and can’t even make it semi-consistent.

A bit off-topic but I listened to a program that stated Ukraine makes most of Russia’s armor and spare parts.

War is hell and mistakes are made all the time innocent people die all the time - does not prove they lied - just that they were mistaken. Got your latest check from Pootie yet? Was in in rubles? Do you get bonuses from spamming forums with pro-Pootie FUD?

Odessa you say! Sure does not look like the Battleship Potemkin.

“I listened to a program that stated Ukraine makes most of Russia’s armor and spare parts.”

I have also heard that the Russian Arms Industry relies on Ukrainian suppliers for a lot of components.

Naturally you can post a link to this video of yours?

A stealth Russian ship was sunk, and a military tank transporter.

Well documented.

What FUD? Is disproving dim-witted propaganda wrong?

Both sides lie a lot. It is called the information war.

A very large part of war is based on deception.

Should I keep track of all the fakes? There was a video on youtube someone posted here a few weeks ago, where the MRLS is firing at night at “Russian destroyer” and the crew celebrates hits. The Russian ship was then seen intact, but there was the report that the freighter was hit.
