Barracuda River Drone Strikes Russian Boat and Base on the Dnipro River

The 40th Coastal Defense Brigade of the 30th Marine Corps used a river drone to hit a Russian boat.

The brigade shared the video on its official Facebook page.

During the mission, the Barracuda surface drone covertly entered the area of enemy positions.

At the first stage, it deployed specially designed mines that ensured control over the area. The Barracuda then conducted reconnaissance and identified targets that posed a threat.

The boat operators delivered a precise strike on a river patrol boat equipped with a machine gun and on a logistics base. As a result, both targets were destroyed.

The modular system of the Barracuda river unmanned vehicle allows it to be equipped with various types of weapons. The use of ‘artificial intelligence elements’ has also been reported.

The unmanned vehicle is also likely capable of performing logistical functions, such as delivering supplies to the islands of the Dnipro River.
