#Crimean Bridge

Ukraine’s underwater warfare game is surfacing—quietly and with a big payload. For example, “Marichka”: a six-meter-long, stealthy, multi-purpose undersea drone designed to do just one thing—make sure Russian ships, bridges, and fortifications have very bad mornings. Built by Ukrainian defense startup AMMO, this sleek black torpedo-shaped machine is a prototype that’s already causing serious buzz.

Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has successfully carried out a months-long covert operation that struck the Crimean Bridge for a third time—this time with a precision underwater explosion.

From secret artillery raids deep behind enemy lines to blowing up “the most protected bridge in the world,” Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has proven it can strike the Russian military where it hurts most. 

Russia’s “3-day” full-scale invasion of Ukraine is nearing 1000 days of war, with the Ukrainian Armed Forces defying expectations and dismantling what was once seen as the world’s second-best army. From troops to tanks, Russia’s losses have been staggering—thanks in part to Ukraine’s arsenal. Which weapons are making a difference?
