Reports are that this ship was struck several hours ago (6 May) near Snake Island, is on fire, and being evacuated.

Happy Victory Day y'all.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Ukraine added a +1 to tally of enemy ships lost today.

Looks like somebody is going down the priority list of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, hunting and killing.

Prepare the obituaries for the next two...

For a look at their adventures just trying to get to the Japanese...

You would think they would learn their lesson, and keep their captial ships out of range of shore batteries.

Though, these days maybe there isn’t such a thing as “out of range.”

I hope it sinks and everyone on board dies.

Russian scum!

I know. If someone made a movie about that, people would say it was too unrealistic and slapstick.

One more step closer to WWIII. YAY!!!

We’ve admitted to giving Ukraine current intel on the locations of Russian vessels. What if Russia decides to sink one of our carriers with over 5,000 souls on board as a tit for tat?

This is madness.

Russia has ten more frigates (total) in their Navy, two of them are in the Black Sea.

No other Russian warships can reinforce the Black Sea Fleet, because Turkey has closed access through the Bosphorus Straits.

The last Pooty flagship got a big promo piece like this right before it got wacked. That is not coincidental. A message is being sent.

When the warships do sail from Crimea, they tend to stay 100 miles or so from the Ukrainian coast, potentially keeping them beyond the range of Kyiv’s Neptunes.

For anyone wondering why the Russians are sailing so close to danger, the range of the Neptune is 175 nm. A pair of dividers will reveal that the range circle covers the northern 1/3 - 1/2 of the Black Sea.
