The surface drones of the Ukrainian naval forces will only be effective as long as the Russian navy has not developed effective defence tactics. The next logical step is to shift the dynamics below the surface. Ammo Ukraine has now used its ingenuity and engineering skills to develop such an underwater drone. Marichka is to be six metres long and have a range of 1000 kilometres. Depending on the payload, it can be used as a means of transport, a reconnaissance sensor or an attack weapon. The media are currently talking about testing - but this is only likely to take up a small window of time, as the real test should be a timely baptism of fire with real hits.
