1st the word your looking for is Banzai not Kamikaze Banzai is the suicide charge where you die killing as many of them as possible Kamikaze is what Japan called their pilots that would banzai and the word means "divine wind" and these pilots would banzai charge the ships slamming their plains into them to do as much damage as possible 2nd drone attacks with ships have existed for thousands of years with the first form being fire ships a fire ship is a ship packed full of explosive material and flammable material a fire would be started on the ship and the crew(everyone but the slaves rowing the ship) would jump into the water and swim back to their fleet once the fire spread to the flammable material it would spread to the explosive material and blow up the ship and spread the flammable material across the enemy fleet as the slaves chained to the ship would still be rowing the ship at the enemy ships the explosion would then spread the flames and flammable material to the other ships burning the people on the decks and causing fires to brake out on these ships at this point the fleet that launched the fire ship would engage the now burning fleet of ships and wipe them out during all the chaos of explosion and burning ships turns out if your an idiot is doesn't matter so long as your country is one of the few victories ones as history is writing by the victorious not the defeated

People also tend to forget that the ships that have been sunk by drones were mostly in port: ie unmoving targets. They'd also been sitting there for a lomg time so it wasn't hard to know exactly where it would be and when, ans when it came under attack the ships couldn't go anywhere, and even then the Ukrainians got really lucky since the Russians had a bunch of their defenses deactivated and those defenses are, well, Russian, so you can imagine the quality

....yet.

@@2006gtobob They'll probably get there eventually but there are issues with long range drones that Ukraine is already dealing with. The signals can get jammed the closer they get to electronic warfare stations and jammers so they either need some way of operating without a signal, effectively turning them into guided missiles but without a missiles speed, or you give them some way of picking their targets with a targeting system but that also essentially turns them into a guided missile. This isnt a huge issue on land since there's tons of things like terrain that makes it harder to spot and target drones, so you can send the drone in close to the target before having to worry about a lot of that, especially since on land the targets are much more spread out. At sea though there's nowhere to hide, nothing to really obscure the drones positions, and the targets are pretty concentrated and since they're so concentrated it means you have to send those drones past more and better radar/electronic warfare stations in the form of screening ships and picket ships. For drones to be really useful on the open ocean they either need to be sent in swarms to overwhelm the enemy, something that we're already figure out ways to protect against, they need to be powerful enough to still maintain a connection which massively increases their cost, or the drones need to be smart enough to operate similar to how they would if they were controlled by a pilot and that's the tough part. Even if we plug ChatGPT into a kamikaze drone there's another issue in that all that technology will likely up the cost which reduces some of the benefits of a drone which means we also need to bring down costs on smart drones once they are developed. Similarly we could make the drones capable of overcoming the jamming but that's going to be expensive and unreliable since it could lead to an arms race of stronger jammers and since it's easier to fit a bigger jammer on a capitol ship then counter measures on a cheap drone that's less a less viable solution.

@@arthas640 Russian quality??? Seems to me the 'Russian quality' is mopping the floor with the best the west can supply. It's quite funny when Russia starting using pen & paper to calculate strike zones people laughed at how 'old tech / stupid' stupid the Russians are... until it proved be far more effective than the electronic targeting systems.

Pack it up with batteries or solar power, add AI targeting mechanism and it would reach it's target. They don't need to go fast, and the advantage of the drone is that it cannot sink. (Edit: due to rough weather, I mean. There are plenty videos of drone ships flipping themselves back)

so they've annexed the bottom of the sea?

That's extremely interesting. Thanks!

Actually that's half true. The lack of oxygen gives rise to bacteria that feed on iron amd not organic material. Thus an iron ship would not last anywhere near as long as a wooden ship would

It would be obsolete if you can overcome its point defenses with waves of drone attack that cost a few thousand each.

Not really naval kamikaze drone can't patrol gobal oceans nor can make inland strike deep within enemy territory nor theses drones cant use do air defense either. ​@@benjaminrichey278

You are right generally, however this case may be the odd one out. The main advantage of warships is power projection, Russias Black Sea Fleet can’t do that. In this case, it has actually become kind of obsolete. On that note, big ships are also by nature big targets, I think they could also be obsolete generally in merely a couple of decades. Automated drone ships should become the obvious choice.

"invest in protecting" how? navies are already insanely expensive to make and maintain lmao have you ever heard the phrase throwing good money after bad?

Exactly. Just hyperbolic morons who don’t understand the seesaw that is the “_____ vs Anti-_____” race that has existed since the Dawn of time. Countering drones is easy relatively speaking… it’s just expensive. Electronic warfare suites, more guns and so on. Russia can’t afford to add that shit to their ships, because they can barely afford to even keep the ships they have, maintained. It’s just going to require R&D to come up with the most efficient and cost efficient ways of countering drones. This should have been done half a decade ago… but unfortunately a lot of morons have been riding the stupid “Peace Dividend” for so long that they don’t understand the need to put MORE FUNDING towards R&D. This ain’t the late 90’s anymore fuckers, this is the 1950’s.

If you factor in that a warship costs are in millions and go up to billions, ammunition and the cost for the crew not included that is indeed cheap.

Back then he was right

There is also a system of inland waterways in Russia, called UDWS, linking the White Sea, the Baltic Sea, the Volga River, Moscow, the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea.

That is true, but there are certain capabilities in the Black Sea Fleet which can be described as irreplaceable, which have been lost. Namely, the cruiser Moskva and her air defense systems. In addition, it cannot replace potential losses in larger ships such as the Admiral Grigorovich-class frigates, and I don’t believe the Gepards and Buyans have any serious air defense capabilities beyond self-defense. They’d be useful Kalibir lobbers, but not much more.

Fair point, but Caspian Sea is just a lake

They have navy assets worth talking about in the Caspian?

Rc hobby OP

That's basically what all guided bombs and missiles are, hence why everyone who can afford them makes and uses them.

Unfortunately many civilains were cilled. Ucrane is evil. Source: Me.

Agreed and In terms of loss of life, this is probably quite humane since the sunk ships are not out on the open sea, and sink slowly after having been hit once or twice. This gives the crew more time to orderly evacuate the sinking ship. Not quite the same as if 2 war ships or fleets actually engage in open sea combat.

Like your brain.

Hahaha rip

So they defeated Russia but still Russia owning whole eastern Ukraine, thats not how winning look like

It definitely is a W for Ukraine and really impressive. But speaking plainly ,I don’t think Ukraine is winning this war considering the dependence on US aid and the current U.S national sentiment of stopping the aid. If Trump gets elected you can definitely forget about Ukraine’s aid. Russia also is doing phenomenally well considering all the sanctions the U.S imposed on them and the new trade diplomacy they’ve developed out of it. It just seems like the longer this war goes, the more likely it is for Russia to win.

@@meteorknight999 Human warriors have been "obsolete" since the sword and bow. You can easily destroy a person that it takes hundreds of thousands of dollars and decades to produce with a cheap bullet. The problem is that you need a human warrior to take and hold territory so we still field warriors despite how commonly they are destroyed. If you want to deny enemy ships from an area away from your coast you'll need a ship on station to keep eyes and act as a drone/missile platform. That ship being vulnerable to attack is immaterial because you can't do it cheaper some other way. Big Guns were less effective than planes, so the battleship was replaced by aircraft carriers. A carrier could do everything the battleship did and more. But can a kamikaze drone do what a destroyer does? Or will we just have to accept that some ships will be sunk so they'll have to build more, smaller ships for redundancy?

​@@Aesoporificif small RC boat can do on what destroyer supposed to do (sinking a ship), so what the purpose of spending 2000x more resource to produce it?

@@ebehdzikraa3855 Ah, but is that really the job of a destroyer? Destroyers usually scout for enemy ships. They screen larger ships, defending them from attack. They often are used in diplomacy to physically visit other countries. A RC boat might do the same job as a naval missile or a gun on a destroyer, but it doesn't do all the jobs of a destroyer.

real

Nah, the torpedo boats would just get droned. Gotta just make a big floating swarm and have it hang out somewhere in the water. You could even make them submersible like drug traffickers' subs. Then it's just driveable sea mines. Sea warfare is going to get interesting.

The Swedish Navy is composed almost entirely of fast assault craft. 165 of them, cruising around the Baltic Sea. Standard armament is naval mines and depth charges, but they can also be equipped with hellfire missile launcher and with drone control equipment. Should probably be fairly easy for them to drop autonomous stealth torpedoes close to the target.

​​@@markbecker5951 I mean the Moskva being a battlecruiser was propaganda... Russian propaganda to be precise.

The Neptune was completed before the invasion. Harpoon came after and was developed by the US, not by the UK. Development was not parallel; the Americans (through NATO) provided Ukraine the tech to make their own missile knowing the war would come by supplying some parts to appear less involved in the war, and the UK supplied Harpoon Missiles (provided to them by the U.S.) later. This is all from unclassified sources - including Wikipedia - with appropriate news references, dated articles and dated version history you can look at. (This is why Wikipedia provides you access to past versions of the articles so you can see what people edited/tried to edit and the date stamps to those old versions.) Neptune is actually better and more modern than the versions of The OLD Harpoon they were given. Russia has been fighting OLD NATO-tech most of the time - often outside of it's service-date as well - not the stuff NATO keeps for itself or uses in modern engagements.

The Houthis' target isn't military ships, but commercial ones, so as to cause financial damage to any country supporting Israel. If the Houthis were to actually go after military ships, I doubt the US and UK response would have been as weak as it is

@@fatboyRAY24 Well, actually, no. Airships are older than Avengers. And real life airships do exist, or at least air taxis do. Plus we have airplanes. But the idea behind airships is that they're supposed be more accessible and maneuverable, and be able to travel on both air and sea. We have some small planes that do that already, but we need much bigger ones.

@@ca_kay airships are likely bigger sitting ducks, especially since weather effects them more than water ships. aka they have to land periodically. also they would have extreeme energy requirements that would place a choke point at their refueling stations to an even greater degree than water ships.

The only russian aircraft carrier was built by Ukrainians and was stolen by rusians. Unfortunately for the Russians, at that time the ship was unfinished. The russians never managed to make something useful out of it. But this ship still helps the motherland (Ukraine) to destroy russian planes and large floating docks.

Russian ships are destroyed by British special forces using British drones and missiles, relying on American intelligence and satellite communications. There is nothing Ukrainian in all this, and Russia understands this very well. Fortunately, Ukraine is not on an island and a war with Russia at sea has no prospects.
