Nice! Already added to Wikipedia, lol. Russia hasn't lost this many warships in a single campaign since Tsushima.Unconfirmed reports say Russian landing ship Caesar Kunikov has been hit.
Let them continue this behaviour - more targets for the Ukrainians to sink. I was under the impression that the ship may have been anchored or the vid starts when its engines were already disabled by prior hits.Nice! Already added to Wikipedia, lol.

Sinking of Tsezar Kunikov leaves Russian Black Sea Fleet with only 5 serviceable ships, down from 13
After the destruction of the large Russian landing ship Tsezar Kunikov, only 5 of the 13 ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet remain in service.www.pravda.com.ua
Why the heck are the Russians sailing these important landing ships off Crimea without any escorts, small patrol craft or drones overhead? It looks like the Kunikov is just sitting there.
They were destroyed by ramming."Russia claims that six Ukrainian drones were destroyed diring the attack on the Caesar Kunikov..."
Of course they were - the Kunikov valiantly destroyed them all!
Look out Iron Bottom Sound, there's going to be a hot new dive spot!
The vast majority of the Ukraine armed forces are still equipped with very similar equipment as the Russian forces. The exception is probably its artillery, however you can have the largest technical advantage in the world, but without ammunition, it counts for nothing.For an army that's apparently on the ropes, the Russians continue to hold back the technologically superior Ukrainians. The latter of which have regained about 100 sqkm since Jan 2023 notwithstanding inflicting about 1/2 a million casualties. Until Ukraine has a viable strategy to overcome the Suvorkin Line, it doesn't really matter how many losses Russia takes.
Perhaps but it has a line in more then a few... lets say... "operations" in the West. Knowing were what is and by who is an advantage.The vast majority of the Ukraine armed forces are still equipped with very similar equipment as the Russian forces.

If the Russians are going to anchor their important vessels at sea, I'd love to see the Ukrainians board and capture a Russian landing ship.Let them continue this behaviour - more targets for the Ukrainians to sink.
