The lessons are not for future use: Ukraine again threatens Russia with a “mosquito fleet” and a “wolf pack”
Ukraine should abandon its attempt to build large warships.
This was stated in an interview with the Kyiv online publication “Apostrophe” by the former first deputy commander of the special operations forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, deputy secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Sergei Krivonos, who complained about the situation in the Black and Azov regions.
“The [Russian] blockade continues. And the fact that we hardly hear about it indicates attempts to divert public attention from this problem. The introduction of high-precision missile systems "Alder" and "Neptune" is one of our responses to enemy actions. They allow you to hit the enemy at long range,” Krivonos said.
He also opposed the resumption of construction of the Ukrainian corvette.
“I am a supporter of the mosquito fleet concept. The experience of the Falklands War shows that the well-equipped English destroyer Sheffield was sunk by one aircraft that dropped one bomb. The mosquito fleet is the most acceptable option for us. Many small boats capable of attacking in a “wolf pack” manner are more difficult to track and therefore more difficult to destroy. Plus, let’s not forget about the economic benefits for our country,” the official said.
According to him, first you need to think about how not to let the enemy get close to you, and therefore how to make it so that you can approach the enemy, but “a corvette alone will not solve the problem.”
The publication noted that we are talking about at least four such ships.
“Let’s build at least one first,” Krivonos noted skeptically.
As PolitNavigator reported, the Ukrainian “wolf pack” itself threatened the Russian Federation fell into a trap.
In addition, in Kyiv bitterly admitted that If Ukrainian corvettes are launched, they will be sunk by the first Russian salvo.
It is noteworthy that during the incident in the Kerch Strait, Ukrainelost a third of the “mosquito fleet”.
