The Security Service of Ukraine has unveiled details of a nighttime operation conducted between December 5 and 6. Utilizing the Sea Baby maritime drones, the operation targeted russian helicopters, aircraft, and Raptor patrol boats attempting to intercept the Ukrainian drones.
Contrary to expectations, russian forces, confident in their ability to overpower the drones, became the hunted. The Sea Baby drones, equipped with heavy machine guns featuring advanced ballistic auto-targeting and auto-locking systems, inflicted significant damage on russian helicopters. Intercepted radio communications confirmed casualties and injuries among russian crews, as well as the need for extensive repairs to their aircraft.

The operation also dealt a blow to russian logistics, as the drones successfully struck a barge transporting military equipment and supplies for repairing the Crimean Bridge, a key infrastructure repeatedly targeted by Ukrainian special forces.
According to the Military Counterintelligence Department, the Sea Baby drones are highly versatile platforms capable of deploying a variety of weaponry, from rocket artillery systems to airborne drones.
“The results of our work are far greater than we can currently reveal, but everything will come in due time,” reads the report.
