Reported as a Russian Be-12 bomber dropping an unguided (free-fall) bombs on the Ukrainian naval kamikaze drone in the Black Sea.

Accuracy = 0 Totally based on luck What’s more lucky is that the naval kamikaze drone might have a modified air-to-air missile installed.

Great aiming, all four bombs scored a direct hit on the sea.

It's an ugly aircraft

👀

efficiency : 0,001% maybe...

Two bombs hit close to an object in water - first impression it was not moving.

Be-12 is NOT a bomber, it just happens it can drop a few bombs

Should have bring out the naval drone equipped with anti-air missiles. We could've gotten a juicy target here to shoot at.

The poor fishies swimming under there...

Looks like a white inflatable target to me 🤷

Regia Areonautica tried it in WWII, on British convoys thru the Sicily Channel. Target were ships. It didn't worked.

Looking a little rusty

This is the reason why I don’t think that Ukraine’s success against the Russian Black Sea fleet is necessarily a futuristic depiction of the success of drone boats against Big Navy. The Russians just suck when it comes to guided munitions.

4 bombs to eliminate 1 drone? No Wonder ruzzia is losing.

It screams primitive and dumb at the same time. Using a 60+ year old flying boat to yeet WWII-era dumb bombs at modern kamikaze drones… and then proudly showing the four consecutive splashes in the water.

no smoke or fire, just fountains of water - they missed

Rusty ass shitbox plane

The Be-12 is a flying boat that was built in the 60's for an anti-sub role but was kept for recon and rescue needs. Only 6 or so were operational until the war started. Ukraine took out a few in September. Very outdated but one of the best ways Russia can stop the drone boats.

they killed 5 fish like this

Potemkin village is the capital of Russia. Moscow is a suburb. 🐠

*Tim Curry voice* "Yeah, right. Stand by for further air conditioning."

Where is drone?

This is cool from a footage standpoint. I can't believe Russia is providing such historical footage for such an historical aircraft! Especially since their aircraft are quickly becoming historical artifacts themselves. Hopefully they continue to fail.

I suppose it makes the Russians feel good to go fishing that way... but it's not a very serious way to conduct a war... Ukraine wins this round.

looks like an expensive way to try and hit something. It would be even more costly if the sea drone had a surface to air missile on board.

They more likely hit the cruiser-turned-submarine Moskva than any Ukrainian drone...

The fish 🐟🎏🐟 😱 Get 👓 Nevertheless I can't see a target 🤷

Whatever was in the water, looks like they missed

There is no drone. Looks like a smoke-releasing target or marker.

Another piece of WWII technology dragged out of storage

Doesnt look like a naval drone. Probably more like some garbage floating around coming from a ship like the Moskva when it sunk.

@OnDisasters No secondary explosion, 💥 well, 🤷🏽‍♂️!

Hahhaha they are so terrified of getting AIM-9'd or R-73'd in helis they switch to this shit?
