Obviously we have woken up to a major invasion of #Ukraine by #Russia. I am not going to be one of those #OSINT people who try to capitalize on war for Social Media reasons. But I will follow naval aspects. Mostly analysis 
Right now there is a Russian navy hydrographic vessel near #Odessa. Likely weather intelligence for Russian forces, not sexy but important
There are also a number of warships, some with kalibr cruise missiles. These are likely firing missiles in ‘first day’ strategic strikes. But vessels carry relatively few missiles. Kilo submarines only 2-4
Unclear at this stage what role the amphibious landing ships play. Watch this space
In the Med the Slava cruisers and bastion-P missiles, and Backfire and foxhound aircraft, are outer defense against NATO involvement
