Over the course of two years of war, the Russian Black Sea Fleet lost three large landing ships, several landing boats, and the ability of the Russian Armed Forces to land troops was reduced by two battalions.
This was announced by the Commander of the Naval Forces (Navy) of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Vice Admiral Alexey Neizhpapa.
— Due to the destruction of landing ships by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the Black Sea Fleet's ability to land amphibious assault has decreased by a battalion. At the beginning of a full-scale war on the Black Sea, the Russians were able to land up to a marine brigade at a time. Now the brigade is missing two battalions, — he said.
Neizhpapa emphasized that landing ships, as well as carrier ships of the Caliber missiles with which the Russian Federation attacks Ukraine, are one of the priority targets for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
