- The targeted Russian warship, a MPSV07 project vessel with advanced equipment, was hit in the control bridge area, rendering it inoperable and requiring expensive repairs.

DIU special forces hit a Russian warship
The Russians commissioned the ship in 2015. Its cost is about $60 million. The aggressor has four such vessels in total.
The ship of the MPSV07 project is equipped with diving complexes, remote-controlled devices, side-scan sonar, and PER means. It can be used for bottom surveying. The ship's power is about 4 MW.
At the time of the attack by the GUR special forces, the enemy ship was conducting electronic reconnaissance and patrolling the approaches to the Novorossiysk Bay, where the aggressor had “registered” the remnants of its Black Sea Fleet.
The Ukrainian Defense Ministry's GUR masters struck a well-aimed blow with a Ukrainian-made combat drone in the area of the control bridge, where, in particular, the ship's navigation and communication equipment is located.
As a result of the strike, the enemy ship's RER equipment was destroyed, and the ship was put out of action for expensive repairs.
