We are talking about equipment that increases the range and radius of its operation.
The occupiers used this drone for reconnaissance and further attacks by Shahed kamikaze drones on critical infrastructure facilities in the south of Ukraine.
The Neva-B radar station for detecting surface objects (from motor boats to ships) also operated on this platform. With the help of this radar, the occupiers controlled the situation in the northwestern part of the Black Sea.
Details of the special operation Citadel
The special operation was carried out in the zone of constant patrolling of the Russian aviation and navy.
The group of the 73rd Maritime Operations Center, after careful planning and preparation at night in boats, came close to the mining platform.
After special actions and clearing, the object was mined.
The battle group retreated to a safe distance and blew up the targets.
As a result of a successful special operation, important equipment of the Russian Federation was captured and a mast with an antenna was blown up.
This will ensure the safe movement of ships and limit the capabilities of the invaders in the northwestern part of the Black Sea.
