**BREAKING**
Thread 🧵

#Ukrainian strike on #Russian Navy base at Sevastopol in Crimea appears to have damaged, possibly seriously (TBC), the submarine support ship Kommuna (ref ) hisutton.com/Russian-Navy-K…
Kommuna, ship cutaway
Video
Kommuna gets a degree of sympathy because she is an ancient and beautiful ship, 112 years old(!).

But objectively she is a legitimate target and provides Russian navy with valuable capabilities. She often participates in submarine trials and can conduct seabed warfare Image

***UPDATE***

First images of Australia’s new 3D printed extra-large autonomous underwater vehicle (XLAUV), the Ghost Shark. 🧵 Image
This is the previous graphic shared by manufacturer Andruil, when the deal for 3 vehicles was announced. See hisutton.com/Australian-Nav…
Image
The design has a square cross-section which contrasts with the rounded form of the previous artworks. This maximizes volume for its given outer dimensions

Crucially, it can still likely fit inside a standard shipping container, an advantage over larger types like the Boeing Orca used by U.S. NavyImage

Thread 🧵
2 years ago today, Ukraine hit the Russian Black Sea Fleet flagship Moskva with two Neptune missiles.

At the time it seemed like a spectacular event. But the real story of how Ukraine turned the situation in the Black Sea around was only beginning. #Moskvahisutton.com/Russian-Navy-M…
navalnews.com/naval-news/202…
The missiles hit amidships, likely detonating a magazine of the AK630 anti-aircraft guns. Image

***UPDATE***

Reports that Transnistria (part of Moldova) may request annexation by Russia.

May trigger action from Moldova with #Ukraine help

#Russia realistically unable to intervene, in part because Ukraine has sunk so many of its landing ships in past 2 years

**HOT TAKE**

Thread 🧵

Reports that Turkey will allow some #NATO warships through the Bosporus into the Black Sea.

This raises several questions. Still digesting it but sharing some thoughts below. Caveats apply.
#RussianUkrainianWar Image
Context
Firstly, if USNavy or Royal Navy deploy ships, I would expect only ‘defensive’ ships to be sent. Most likely coast guard and/or mine hunters. The reasons are obvious. Image
