Ukraine has reached an agreement with countries in the Persian Gulf to supply naval drones, President Volodymyr Zelensky announced, according to Interfax-Ukraine.
The fleet’s forces and assets, together with Special Operations Forces units, struck enemy positions on the Sivash drilling platform located at the Golitsyn gas field.
At the Naval Support and Experimentation Center of La Spezia, Fincantieri launched its first “DEEP” underwater drone system during a demonstration mission.
The Defense Intelligence units are already effectively using the previously donated T12 boats to patrol water areas and conduct special operations, including in temporarily occupied territories.
A key advantage of the new systems is their software-defined architecture, which allows scaling the platforms’ functionality and adapting them to tasks of varying complexity.
It was launched on June 14, 2022. In October-November 2023, it was transported via Russia’s inland waterways to the Baltic Shipyard in St. Petersburg for completion.
