MODERATORS
It carries a modified R-73 so seems credible enough against a low flying target.
I don't remember them fabricating a lot of stuff, the one major thing was the "ghost of Kyiv", which I always assumed was simply a morale booster
I don't remember them fabricating a lot of stuff
Remember the spring offensive?
The new Ukrainian sea drones are no joke, SAMs and a minigun in addition to torpedoes make them incredibly versatile
I don't disbelieve this or believe it, but it's like posting "enemy soldier killed by new weapon", a sort of puff piece that is on the level of serious as games workshop claiming "breaking news! New genestealer hoof prints!"

Interesting there's so much media about the Ukraine "winning" shortly after surveys were done finding most Europeans think the war is a lost cause and not worth the money.
Need the war propaganda right now, I guess.
