The boats were used by Ukrainian marines in landing exercises on unprepared coastlines.

The exercises were aimed at preparing units for the amphibious assault.

First of all, the boat crews practiced landing marine groups, crossing the sea, maneuvering, building combat formations, and landing marines on an unequipped coast.

Such exercises are held to sharpen the skills of personnel, as well as to train for landings on the coast captured by the enemy.

“We’re aiming for seamless coordination among the boat crews, regardless of weather conditions or enemy presence. In combat scenarios, the group needs to function as a cohesive unit,” explained Volodymyr, the commander of one of the landing craft.

The Uisko-class landing craft were donated by the Finnish government as part of a military aid package for Ukraine.

It should be noted that the Finnish government has not officially announced the transfer of boats of this class.

This became known during a speech by Romanian President Klaus Iohannis in March 2023. He said that he had authorized the transit of Finnish boats to Ukraine through his country.

Militarnyi previously reported that the Netherlands will provide Ukraine with high-speed inflatable and armored boats in patrol and combat versions.

The Dutch Defense Ministry detailed that Ukraine will receive fourteen rigid hull inflatable boats (RHIBs), five militarized river patrol boats, and three CB90 combat boats.
