    Doesn’t this seem a little risky given their success against the Russian ships?

    It’s such a huge amount of money that can be taken down by a swarm of water and or air drones.

      Yep.

      That said I see this as an absolute victory for Ukraine.

      They are building a modern navy, if they can equip and defend their ports with a new navy while destroying their aggressors capability it sends a pretty powerful message.

        Honestly I don’t see the point. I think they should just specialize in lean and mean equipment like drones since their position just has to worry about the black sea. let the big nations on the atlantic and pacific worry about having a manned navy.
