How the SBU special operation in Kerch Bay went
As noted, the Russian side tried to intercept a group of drones with the help of helicopters, airplanes and Raptor patrol boats.
The Russian pilots thought they were hunters and expected an easy hunt, but they themselves became prey, as the naval drones opened fire in return, the report said.
Sea Baby drones were equipped with large-caliber machine guns with automatic guidance and automatic target capture using ballistic programs.
The Security Service of Ukraine also released an intercepted conversation of the Russian military, which talks about losses on board the helicopters: there are dead and wounded. In addition, the helicopters suffered significant damage that required major repairs.

The kid revealed the details of using Sea Baby with the Grad anti-aircraft missile system
According to the head of the SBU, Vasyl Malyuk, the Sea Baby drone, equipped with Grad rocket salvo fire systems, was used for the first time in December 2023.
The use of surface naval combat drones is a new milestone in the history of naval battles. But we have gone much further, and today we successfully adapt various types of weapons to our drones. We will not reveal all the details so as not to give the enemy an opportunity to prepare. The main thing is that we implement the best military-technological solutions, experiment and improve every day.
After all, Sea Baby is a multi-purpose platform on which the special service places additional weapons to perform various tasks. Among other things, the drone effectively performs remote mining. And, according to the Head of the SBU, 4 enemy ships were already hit in this way.
With the help of these drones, the SBU blew up the Crimean bridge and hit a total of 11 Russian warships.
