Forbes: There are good Soviet tactics against Ukrainian underwater drones

Russia has a legacy of excellent Soviet tactics that will help destroy underwater drones. This opinion was expressed by Forbes military columnist David Ax. In his opinion, the Russian military can use Ka-27 helicopters and small anti-submarine ships to combat underwater drones.

The expert refers to the Soviet tactics of detecting objects, in which the helicopter-ship combination works. In this case, both types of weapons cover each other’s “blind spots” and an external threat can be detected long before it approaches its target. In this way, it is possible to create “impenetrable curtains” at the entrance to bays and in other narrow parts of the water area, Ex is sure.

Let us remind you that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are relying on their naval drones. They are constantly trying to attack Sevastopol with their help. However, the Russian military shoots down most drones on the way to the roadstead.
