Ukrainian drone boat sinks Russian Orcan USV in first ship-to-ship drone battle
On September 12, Ukraine's Defense Intelligence spotted a Russian Orcan explosive drone boat in the Black Sea and sent a Sargan-3000 naval drone armed with a remote-controlled 12.7mm machine gun to intercept it. The Ukrainian vessel opened fire from about one kilometer away, knocking out the Russian drone's communications antenna before sinking it entirely, according to footage released by Ukraine's navy.
