The response photos and videos were published today, March 6, by the SBU press center.
In record time, thanks to Ukrainian business, international donors and Ukrainians, almost 300 million hryvnia were collected for 35 SBU “Sea Baby” sea drones, the report says.
The first of these 35 drones was named Avdeevka.
It differs from the previous generation, including in appearance. “Sea baby,” produced in 2024, is a new generation drone, improved and even more lethal to the enemy, the SBU notes.
It is noted that Avdeevka, like every model of maritime drones, will undergo a full cycle of sea tests, during which the SBU development team will adapt the latest on-board weapons, specially designed and manufactured for use on multi-purpose platforms like Sea Baby.
The new “SeaBaby 2024” has improved technical characteristics, combat and maneuverability. It is capable of delivering almost a ton of explosives over a thousand kilometers. The SBU conceived this drone as a universal platform on which various weapons would be placed,” said “Hunter,” a brigadier general of the SBU.
The SBU notes that it was with the help of naval drones that the Crimean bridge was blown up and only 11 Russian warships were hit.
