The first 10 Russian maritime drones will be tested in the Northern Military District zone before the end of the year

November 27, 2023 6

The Russian side plans to test in the special operation zone the first ten maritime drones produced by the KMZ holding, which specializes in the production of boats for the law enforcement agencies of the Russian Federation. About this in an interview RIA News said the head of the association, Mikhail Danilenko.

The head of the company noted that the “disposable” boats will be flat and practically not rising above the surface of the water. Drone speed is about 80 km/h. Marine drones are capable of carrying explosives, escort and reconnaissance equipment, as well as special cargo over a distance of up to 200 km. Load weight can reach 600 kg.

In addition, the boats will be able to serve as anti-drones and platforms for launching aerial unmanned aerial vehicles.

Earlier, sources reported the use of new Scalpel loitering ammunition by Russian military personnel in Ukraine. In November, the first 15 copies of these weapons were sent to the areas of the special operation. Also, domestic gunsmiths created the Italmas drone, which is similar in tactical and technical characteristics to the kamikaze drone Geranium.

Meanwhile, the entire Russian military technique is able to function effectively in winter conditions - you just need to use the appropriate oils. Military expert Yuri Knutov spoke about this.

What is this all about? About the fact that we can now sink the Ukrainian fleet?
Or that

All Russian military equipment is capable of functioning effectively in winter conditions - you just need to use the appropriate oils.

Will we soon have motor oils and everything will change dramatically?

  Check out the list of oils from the same Lukoil or Gazprom to get started. everything has already been there for a long time. Did your grandfathers fill the T-34 with German oils during WWII?

Again, catching up, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have already sunk several of our ships, and we have only just seen the first signs. Even the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in difficult economic conditions, creates something that our military-industrial complex, with huge funding and an intact base, only has to catch up with... Where are our problems, the problems are in personnel! (reinterpreting our classic, “personnel decide everything”)...

    (Valery Pavlenko) What kind of incontinence, just hysteria. Firstly, we’re talking about naval drones, and the cruiser “Moscow” has no side effects, because it was hit by 2 anti-ship missiles “Neptune”. What they didn’t finish and sank while towing, the command of the cruiser should be awarded an order “for sinking the cruiser while towing.” By the way, nuclear submarines were also sunk while towing, we have experience. (Again, “personnel decide everything”). Next, speak more on the topic...

  The Ukrainian Armed Forces does not create anything but receives ready-made kits from the British. All that remains is assembly on site.
  Ours also created a similar drone. He participated in the bombing of a bridge somewhere in Ukraine more than a year ago. There was a video. Apparently they have finalized it and are now launching it in a small series to test the versatility of its application. Other drones have also been developed for the protection of sea harbors and underwater security, but this was back in 2021. Was shown . Perhaps they met the needs of the special services or were sent for testing in other waters.
