Explosive-laden jet ski near Istanbul, allegedly Ukrainian, not a working maritime drone — Defense Express
This was announced by the head of the Security Service of Ukraine Vasyl Maliuk in a telethon.
It is noted that the first launch of a marine drone was carried out on December 20, 2023.
"It is used to hit ground-based surface targets in the coastal zone, as well as for direct fire contact at sea," Maliuk said.
According to him, in addition to multiple launch rocket systems, there are many other types of weapons that the drone carries as a multipurpose platform.
