Ukraine's Stealth Drone: Mariyka's 1000km Reach

Ukrainian Defense Unveils Mariyka: A Stealth Underwater Drone with 1000km Range A new development in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has emerged: the Mariyka, a 6-meter-long underwater drone. Developed by a Ukrainian defense startup, this stealthy drone is designed to target Russian ships and infrastructure. Its claimed range of up to 1000km makes it a significant threat. The drone's design allows it to remain undetected by most radars and sonar systems. Its multi-compartment design allows it to be used for both suicide attacks and cargo/reconnaissance missions, depending on the mission requirements. The video shows animations of the drone approaching and attacking a ship. "It's invisible to most radars, scanners, and sonar systems," states the video's narrator, highlighting the drone's stealth capabilities. The video also suggests that the drone's deployment point is likely near Odesa or Snake Island, indicating a potential strategy for targeting Crimean infrastructure. The development of Mariyka, and its potential impact on the conflict, warrants further investigation. Its stealth and long-range capabilities could significantly alter the strategic landscape of the war.
