We only had 6 magazines of blank ammo each, so shooting full auto was out of the question if you wanted to remain "alive." You run out of ammo and you're automatically "dead!" I was in charge of taking "captured" enemies back to base. We let them keep their weapons, because they were responsible for them, but I confiscated all of their blank ammo.

After that they changed how the "extra" ammo was dealt with! LOL!!!

USMC from time to time these days practice together with the Swedish “Coastal Ranger Company” who uses these boats. Among other things I believe CB90s launching from larger USMC amphibious assault ships. The US Navy’s NECC also has two of these boats. Manly for use in rivers it seems. The Swedish archipelagos are full with small islands like everywhere. And the Swedish military strategy is mainly defensive. To repel an aggressor on its own territory. Moving from island to island with relatively small units. The US doesn’t seem to have much of those kinds of archipelagos, and I would suppose USMC’s strategy is more offensive and about launching way larger amounts of Marines against a shoreline. So I assume the CB90 isn’t the best option for that. What deserves to be mentioned though is that the USMC, when on an exercise in Sweden, didn’t stand a chance against possible the toughest units of the Swedish militia. Who deployed unconventional weapons the Marines hadn’t trained to encounter: Swedish kids armed with snowballs! Sorry guys…!

The Rurik dynasty of Kyiv Rus (who had its origin in Novgorod) had started to fracture already before the Mongols invaded. Different linages created rather independent principalities. And there were a bunch of capitals of different principalities of the Kievan Rus, that the Mongols came to invade and control by outmaneuvering them against each other. Vladimir-Suzdal was one of those principalities. Tver was then the capital of Vladimir-Suzdal. Moscow had essentially just been a fortress, also sacked by the Mongols. And not until later were the capital moved from Tver to Moscow. Still under rule of the Mongols. Moscow being rather distant to the Mongol rulers, and hence later could muster a force to start ousting the Mongols. But the Mongols were also defeated at other places by other forces. Three different linages of the Rurik dynasty formed, creating different principalities. Vladimir-Suzdal expanded through different means (obviously often through violence) and the Grand Duchy of Moscow became the outcome. All different linages of the Rurik dynasty ending while borders moved constantly between principialities. The Grand Duchy of Moscow transferring into a tzarsom, where the tzar gave himself the title “the tzar of all Russia”, so to spell out the ambitions that he and his linage were the true rulers of all of Russia.

Not because it is a proof of absolute continuity Kievan Rus->Russia that ratifies an invasion of the original lands of the Rus and the Rurik dynasty. Just like adapting the doubble eagle doesn’t make Russia the successor to Rome and Constantinople. Moscow is not the inheritor of Kyiv. It was just one of many Rus states with a Rurik dynasty that appeared in the aftermath of the Mongol invasion. Really, Russia perhaps should call itself “Earth” and do some historical tricks to create a linage from Adam and Eve. Obviously that would make it the true ruler of all nations.

i love how we are providing Ukraine with top of the line equipment that we and other countries is actively using today instead of old antiquated equipment on its last leg and about to be retired and replaced, and the live combat the equipment will see in Ukraine will provide us with invaluable data on its performance so we can further develop and improve it.
Fantastic Commando attack Boat for Crimea . Don't waste them on the Dnipro River where there are too many Orc drones. Wish they had TOW missiles or similar , not just machine guns ???
@@Sam_Guevenne no, you are thinking of the Rb17, a beam riding ground launched anti-ship modification of the US Hellfire missile. The Rbs 15 is far too big for the CB90.
Our coastal troops routinely carry ATGMs aboard amphibious assault craft. That said, target acquisition may be a wee bit challenging from a small boat like this. I'd much rather beach the boat somewhere behind an island and take the shot from terra firma.
The Swedish boat have capacity for mine laying, and Sweden did give mines (as in smart sea mines) to Ukraine, and I am sure they will find some clever use of them.
Victory to Ukraine.Thanks to Allies for supporting Ukraine in the liberation of all the Russian occupied regions of the motherland. May God protect all of you 🙏🙏🙏
Seeing one of those doing 40 knots (in peacetime, in wartime it can go much faster) in narrow straights, using secret unchartered routes, between some of the 270,000 Swedish islands is impressive. It has a draught of only 0.8 m so not many enemy boats would dare to follow.
Proves yet again Sweden despite its small size is one of the great powers of weapons manufacturing in Europe. This Bradley on water is awesome. Besides manufacturing Jas Gripen E, perhaps the world's best 4th gen multi role fighter jet, and world class Kockums submarines, Sweden even had a nuclear weapons program they canceled and 2012 gave 6 kilos of weapons grade Plutonium, 3-6 minimal nuke warheads worth of such material, to the US government. Welcome to NATO, Sweden!
@@johanlittorin2765 taurus? Manufactured in Germany by Taurus Systems GmbH - and gripen can launch it, but as far i know - sweden is not even an operator. So maybe take that off the list... its not developed or designed in sweden.
@@zoolkhan Taurus Systems is the partner-baby of both German company MBDA Deutschland GmbH and Swedish company Saab Bofors Dynamics. Edit: I get your point. But I get Johan's point too.
I was doing some recreational fishing from the cliffs of an island of the west coast of Sweden when a military exercise was going on. One of these boats suddenly came at full speed directly towards me, and while I was almost shitting my pants, it did a full stop just before hitting the cliffs and then gently tapped the rock. Very impressive indeed!
You know what's missing from this: a launching and recovery platform for scout and attack drones. The ability for each boat to have someone in the cockpit that was flying or tasking recon drones and ones that could drop munitions would be a game changer. Pull up to the shoreline, launch two or three drones from the squadron of boats, search up and down the area, identifying enemy positions for the gunners to suppress and finding gaps or weak points to exploit. Send a few attack drones in to take out armor or vehicles. Way easier for the landing party.
It’s rather close between the islands in the archipelagos. I would believe once you have control of one island it is easier to launch drones from a more static position. You also wouldn’t want to launch drones so the launching position (the boat) is identified. But there are likely a bunch of different drones that can be easily carried along with the CB90. The drone wars have just begun, so I would bet there’s a bunch of research and evaluations on their use in Ukraine going on. Likely the Ukrainians will experiment. Counter-drone technology is likely more important. But they’re too fast for the types of drones mostly used in Ukraine. I’d say you would need a laser guided missile or similar.
Omg! I started Tim “ the tool man” Tayloring out in cave-man grunts watching these assault boats in action. I don’t even much care for the water but seeing these things go through their paces made me want to join the Ukrainian Navy! 🇺🇦 ⚓️
if you are 16 or over, good health, and such, and have a passport, why haven't you become a PMC fighting for the Ukies? nothing stopping you from actually enlisting to the front. just you. and or reality.
Some of the best boat handling skills ever!!! Professional soldiers. Welcome to NATO. I served British Merchant Navy, then 9 years army, 4 of those SAS,keepit uplads
We know how to build boats. Historically making a mark with the famous Viking longship. It was an absolute marvel of engineering at the time. It was arguably one of, if not THE most advanced piece of technology of its time. And we haven’t stopped building and improving boats since then. I mean, we had to. Just look at a map of Scandinavia. Without excellent boats, we would be nothing.
@@robertoborri1233 Armement can be varied, including anti ship missiles with a range of 30km. (RBS15) And we've already sent RBS15 to Ukraine in the beginning of the invasion, to defend Odesa.
Anyone else notice how fast those things decelerate? They can literally go full speed until they are just a few meters from the shore and suddenly stop and be immediately ready to let the men out, making a landing much faster than anything ever. It looks so simple thing, but someone must have spent an awful lot of time to shave a few seconds off to give the marines a few seconds advantage.
They are good for seas as well, can drop of people everywhere nearly and very fast. Ukraine has some huge rivers so could work there probably but drones are always a danger.
If you look at a map of Sweden in detail you will see why in many regions small fast highly maneuverable make much more sense than large vessels. Along the coast there are many regions that are made up of a labyrinth of islands and inlets, with very narrow passages and shallow water. So those boats can attack larger vessels in open water and quickly escape and hide between those islands. They are also perfect for landing troups on those islands, that's why the front hatch is so useful.
About 240.000 Islands. Worlds most for one contry. Bin there. Touched unsean official uncharted grounds several times standing with my feet on the ground trying to keep the balance and put the centerboard in place or so on. No really hard conditions those times even if it feeals like that on the reaf when the sails still ar up and small one or two feet wawes are hitting you. 😂
@@KishorTwist They're called game changers. Each time, Russia has to figure out how to play the new game, wrong-footing it and robbing it of its iniative.
Bullshit. SIMA Perú is assembling a downgraded copy modified for interdictions, not for assault. The peruvian version has a smaller and cheaper Diesel Caterpillar engine instead of the Scania of the Swedish version. The Peruvian version only carry 6 soldiers in its interior plus 3 crew. It does not have so many heavy machine guns emplacements, only have 1, and carry three times more fuel, because its main task will be patrolling Peru´s EEZ. So far has assembled only 4. The intention is to buy 3 o 4 more lots of four, but so far has adquired one lot of four.
They should be useful.😉/greetings from Sweden (Now that we are NATO members, I think Gripen fighter jets will also be coming. Former primeminister sayed so on the day we became NATO member! And the matter has been looked into - even what exact numbers. Personally, I hope Ukraine will also be producing a lot of this stuff domestically in cooperatin with Sweden. Aparently the infantry fighting vehicle CV90 is under planning for Ukranian production. Other things will take time, but unfortunately Ukraine needs very strong defence for decades to come, not just to win this war. So there also has to be long term planning.
These boats are cool as hell! I think if that were a real combat beach landing, there would be a helluva lot of suppressing fire from the boats followed by a lot of smoke as the troops went ashore.
Yup, 2 fixed ma deuces to the front, a third .50 or a 40mm grenade machinegun in the central ring mount, and possibly even railing pintle mount MGs shooting past the driver cab. On each boat... And if in a joint amphibious operation woth our Finnish brothers, they also have a bigger assault boat where they have a couple of support variants mounted with 12cm AMOS and NEMO turrets. (Twin and single tube respectively of breech loaded rapid fire mortars)
more equipment onboard means less troop cap. could mod the E version (strip out the medevac stuff) and make that the APC, supply the larger Riverine as a gunboat. some CB90 as mortar or ATGM fire support. might change the course of a skirmish or two. but wont be much more effective than that because we both know the Ukes aren't trained in the usage corretly.@@SonsOfLorgar
That's the plan.😉 Now that we are also finally part of NATO, Gripen fighter jets will also be coming. There is overwhealming political support. Good thing about Swedish arms, is that they are specifically designed to fight an asymetric war with Russia, so designed for Ukraine's war.
@@andersgrassman6583 Exactly, designed for Ukraine's war. I too would love to see Gripens for Ukraine. They wouldn't be in huge numbers at least to start with. They could serve important roles, f.ex. stationed more forward for a fast response role where F-16 bases could be more vulnerable. I believe the Gripen would be a great asset for Ukraine.
@@andersgrassman6583 The CB90 isn't quite that ideal for Ukraine. In the northern Baltic, these boats can dart between islands and seek out shallows that are out of bounds for larger watercraft. For riverine operations, like in the Dnipro with its vast open expanses, they're not that ideal.
Aircraft is still on the table. The official line is that we can't supply fighters until we are part of NATO and under the shared umbrella. Understandable since we have only hundreds of them. But Sweden might be in NATO next week, so watch this space. JAS Gripen fighter jets would be perfect for Ukraine.
I think Ukraine will get the F-16s soon enough. The bottleneck is just finishing the pilot training. Of course, the West should have started it from the very beginning of the war instead of this late into it.
The Dutch and Denmark are supplying F-16 this year … lots of them … it’s not that simple as you stated, pilots need training, logistics and spare parts logistics are part of the package.
Excellent and bravo for these craft, soldiers and support to Ukraine. It will also be a good idea to send some dozen or two of these craft and soldiers to Yemen at the Red sea providing a passage for commercial ships.
if starting today, then by around August. if starting a few months ago and we are hearing about it now to stop potential info going to orcland, then anytime within the next week or so. if starting in a few weeks for training then October is likely.@@larszenthio1012
A good boat to add supplies and reinforcements where needed, behind enemy lines or not, ammo transports - Food logistics, fast in and fast out, a well placed squadron can change the tides and/or save lives.
They can, but I don't think Mini-guns will be included, at least for Sweden it's a pretty new weapon system on these boats, along with some other capabilities, like dedicated mortar boats.
They have speed wow ~ speeds of up to 40 knots (74 km/h) and to slow down from top speed to a complete stop in 2.5 boat lengths. Amazing they can stop in 2.5 boat lengths

Just like adapting the doubble eagle doesn’t make Russia the successor to Rome and Constantinople. Moscow is not the inheritor of Kyiv. It was just one of many Rus states with a Rurik dynasty that appeared in the aftermath of the Mongol invasion.
Really, Russia perhaps should call itself “Earth” and do some historical tricks to create a linage from Adam and Eve. Obviously that would make it the true ruler of all nations.
@@cristitanase6130 It is like saying a Danes and a Swedes are the same people as they share genetic traits, culture and similar language. But they are clearly culturally different people.
I hope Ukraine can continue to stand up to these mad men

Yep, Zelensky is much worse Than Hitler, and all those henchmen of his grabbing boys, old men and women off the street and tossing them into vans.

The stopping distance is very impressive.
First move over the sea extremely fast, then quickly stop and deploy the troops. This boat is meant for invasion.
From full speed 42 knots to stop about 11.5 meters. It is quite impressive.
Now that is a 21st century update to a genuine VIKING WARSHIP.

Holland is just washing money and tax dodging Europe. Worthless really!
1,000's of yrs of vessel building experience, they look agile, Scandinavian know boats
i love how we are providing Ukraine with top of the line equipment that we and other countries is actively using today instead of old antiquated equipment on its last leg and about to be retired and replaced, and the live combat the equipment will see in Ukraine will provide us with invaluable data on its performance so we can further develop and improve it.
Fantastic Commando attack Boat for Crimea . Don't waste them on the Dnipro River where there are too many Orc drones. Wish they had TOW missiles or similar , not just machine guns ???
They have rbs 15
They are modular, you can add grenade launchers, missiles etc.
@@Sam_Guevenne no, you are thinking of the Rb17, a beam riding ground launched anti-ship modification of the US Hellfire missile.
The Rbs 15 is far too big for the CB90.
Our coastal troops routinely carry ATGMs aboard amphibious assault craft. That said, target acquisition may be a wee bit challenging from a small boat like this. I'd much rather beach the boat somewhere behind an island and take the shot from terra firma.
I wonder how much support Germany would get if they fight the Russians and had just a company Nazies fighting for them, I dont think much 🤔
That stopping power is impressive...Very!
Sweden thanks.....🇺🇦
制動力が半端ねえ
Reversed waterjet!
I'm impressed. This boat would be like the PT boats in WWII but modern. Would do serious damage to shore defenses. Ukraine would use them well.
The Swedish boat have capacity for mine laying, and Sweden did give mines (as in smart sea mines) to Ukraine, and I am sure they will find some clever use of them.
@@kirgan1000 or depth charges depending on what's needed on the same rails.
Yay Sweden
Victory to Ukraine.Thanks to Allies for supporting Ukraine in the liberation of all the Russian occupied regions of the motherland. May God protect all of you 🙏🙏🙏
Always loved driving that boat!
Seeing one of those doing 40 knots (in peacetime, in wartime it can go much faster) in narrow straights, using secret unchartered routes, between some of the 270,000 Swedish islands is impressive. It has a draught of only 0.8 m so not many enemy boats would dare to follow.

Proves yet again Sweden despite its small size is one of the great powers of weapons manufacturing in Europe. This Bradley on water is awesome. Besides manufacturing Jas Gripen E, perhaps the world's best 4th gen multi role fighter jet, and world class Kockums submarines, Sweden even had a nuclear weapons program they canceled and 2012 gave 6 kilos of weapons grade Plutonium, 3-6 minimal nuke warheads worth of such material, to the US government. Welcome to NATO, Sweden!
Adding Archer, AT4, Carl Gustaf, NLAW, Taurus, CV90, SBS. Yeah, a lot of great stuff from a small country.
@@johanlittorin2765 taurus? Manufactured in Germany by Taurus Systems GmbH - and gripen can launch it, but as far i know - sweden is not even an operator. So maybe take that off the list... its not developed or designed in sweden.
@@zoolkhan Taurus Systems is the partner-baby of both German company MBDA Deutschland GmbH and Swedish company Saab Bofors Dynamics.
Edit: I get your point. But I get Johan's point too.
Gripen E is to be described as a 4. 5 gen. Fighter. A&C is gen 4.
I was doing some recreational fishing from the cliffs of an island of the west coast of Sweden when a military exercise was going on. One of these boats suddenly came at full speed directly towards me, and while I was almost shitting my pants, it did a full stop just before hitting the cliffs and then gently tapped the rock.
Very impressive indeed!
前から降りられるのいいね。
You know what's missing from this: a launching and recovery platform for scout and attack drones. The ability for each boat to have someone in the cockpit that was flying or tasking recon drones and ones that could drop munitions would be a game changer. Pull up to the shoreline, launch two or three drones from the squadron of boats, search up and down the area, identifying enemy positions for the gunners to suppress and finding gaps or weak points to exploit. Send a few attack drones in to take out armor or vehicles. Way easier for the landing party.
It’s rather close between the islands in the archipelagos. I would believe once you have control of one island it is easier to launch drones from a more static position. You also wouldn’t want to launch drones so the launching position (the boat) is identified. But there are likely a bunch of different drones that can be easily carried along with the CB90. The drone wars have just begun, so I would bet there’s a bunch of research and evaluations on their use in Ukraine going on. Likely the Ukrainians will experiment. Counter-drone technology is likely more important. But they’re too fast for the types of drones mostly used in Ukraine. I’d say you would need a laser guided missile or similar.
The Ukrainians can just add that if they want. It's very customizable.
quick, gets Marines in fast, before enemy has a chance to respond,, then picks up the crew and away they go back to port. NICEEEEEEEE
Omg! I started Tim “ the tool man” Tayloring out in cave-man grunts watching these assault boats in action.
I don’t even much care for the water but seeing these things go through their paces made me want to join the Ukrainian Navy! 🇺🇦 ⚓️
if you are 16 or over, good health, and such, and have a passport, why haven't you become a PMC fighting for the Ukies? nothing stopping you from actually enlisting to the front. just you. and or reality.

Great news thank you Sweden and Netherlands
What an impressive super fast attack boat , as the title describes it , wow ! That is impressive.
We know how to build boats. Historically making a mark with the famous Viking longship. It was an absolute marvel of engineering at the time. It was arguably one of, if not THE most advanced piece of technology of its time. And we haven’t stopped building and improving boats since then. I mean, we had to. Just look at a map of Scandinavia. Without excellent boats, we would be nothing.
That boat is sweet through-and-through!
It's like a fast, powerful tank on water. Bravo Sweden!
its aluminium i think, so of all things - a tank it is not.
right, unarmored and machine guns only @@zoolkhan
@@robertoborri1233 Armement can be varied, including anti ship missiles with a range of 30km. (RBS15) And we've already sent RBS15 to Ukraine in the beginning of the invasion, to defend Odesa.
@@zoolkhan U sure it's aluminium and not some kind of metallic alloy? Is aluminium too soft for this kind of stress?
@@tomparatube6506 it's welded aluminium, not armor.
My older brother worked a few summers at one of the shipyards that built them.
Anyone else notice how fast those things decelerate? They can literally go full speed until they are just a few meters from the shore and suddenly stop and be immediately ready to let the men out, making a landing much faster than anything ever. It looks so simple thing, but someone must have spent an awful lot of time to shave a few seconds off to give the marines a few seconds advantage.
These will go well with the existing river patrol boats Ukraine already has
Have to be a big river. Think the other boats given by Sweden is better suited for that task.
They are good for seas as well, can drop of people everywhere nearly and very fast. Ukraine has some huge rivers so could work there probably but drones are always a danger.
@@rubenskiii id say its more probable they will be used for special forces missions om krym than krynky
Dnipro is a pretty big river!@@cyclonemouse
The Dnipro is a big river...don't worry @@cyclonemouse
If you look at a map of Sweden in detail you will see why in many regions small fast highly maneuverable make much more sense than large vessels. Along the coast there are many regions that are made up of a labyrinth of islands and inlets, with very narrow passages and shallow water. So those boats can attack larger vessels in open water and quickly escape and hide between those islands. They are also perfect for landing troups on those islands, that's why the front hatch is so useful.
About 240.000 Islands. Worlds most for one contry. Bin there. Touched unsean official uncharted grounds several times standing with my feet on the ground trying to keep the balance and put the centerboard in place or so on. No really hard conditions those times even if it feeals like that on the reaf when the sails still ar up and small one or two feet wawes are hitting you. 😂
That’s what you call BRISTLING with weapons.

nice bird running
Peru also operates the CB90,the navy have 24.
Bullshit. SIMA Perú is assembling a downgraded copy modified for interdictions, not for assault.
The peruvian version has a smaller and cheaper Diesel Caterpillar engine instead of the Scania of the Swedish version.
The Peruvian version only carry 6 soldiers in its interior plus 3 crew.
It does not have so many heavy machine guns emplacements, only have 1, and carry three times more fuel, because its main task will be patrolling Peru´s EEZ.
So far has assembled only 4.
The intention is to buy 3 o 4 more lots of four, but so far has adquired one lot of four.
Oh snap. That looks like a beast.

They should be useful.😉/greetings from Sweden (Now that we are NATO members, I think Gripen fighter jets will also be coming. Former primeminister sayed so on the day we became NATO member! And the matter has been looked into - even what exact numbers.
Personally, I hope Ukraine will also be producing a lot of this stuff domestically in cooperatin with Sweden. Aparently the infantry fighting vehicle CV90 is under planning for Ukranian production. Other things will take time, but unfortunately Ukraine needs very strong defence for decades to come, not just to win this war. So there also has to be long term planning.
Bedankt Holland voor je genereuze hulp en steun. Samen staan we, verdeeld vallen we.
These boats are cool as hell!
I think if that were a real combat beach landing, there would be a helluva lot of suppressing fire from the boats followed by a lot of smoke as the troops went ashore.
Yup, 2 fixed ma deuces to the front, a third .50 or a 40mm grenade machinegun in the central ring mount, and possibly even railing pintle mount MGs shooting past the driver cab. On each boat...
And if in a joint amphibious operation woth our Finnish brothers, they also have a bigger assault boat where they have a couple of support variants mounted with 12cm AMOS and NEMO turrets. (Twin and single tube respectively of breech loaded rapid fire mortars)
more equipment onboard means less troop cap. could mod the E version (strip out the medevac stuff) and make that the APC, supply the larger Riverine as a gunboat. some CB90 as mortar or ATGM fire support. might change the course of a skirmish or two. but wont be much more effective than that because we both know the Ukes aren't trained in the usage corretly.@@SonsOfLorgar
This vessel is a beast. They will be good for operations across the Dnipro river (and elsewhere?)
That's the plan.😉 Now that we are also finally part of NATO, Gripen fighter jets will also be coming. There is overwhealming political support. Good thing about Swedish arms, is that they are specifically designed to fight an asymetric war with Russia, so designed for Ukraine's war.
@@andersgrassman6583 Exactly, designed for Ukraine's war. I too would love to see Gripens for Ukraine. They wouldn't be in huge numbers at least to start with. They could serve important roles, f.ex. stationed more forward for a fast response role where F-16 bases could be more vulnerable. I believe the Gripen would be a great asset for Ukraine.
Congratulation!Ukraine has won a ticket home to Russian Federation!.
Crimea beach party! CB90 Tactical Party Boat!
@@andersgrassman6583 The CB90 isn't quite that ideal for Ukraine. In the northern Baltic, these boats can dart between islands and seek out shallows that are out of bounds for larger watercraft. For riverine operations, like in the Dnipro with its vast open expanses, they're not that ideal.
That's nice of Sweden to provide such equipment to the Ukrainians, now how about providing Ukraine the Airpower the country desperately need?
Aircraft is still on the table. The official line is that we can't supply fighters until we are part of NATO and under the shared umbrella. Understandable since we have only hundreds of them. But Sweden might be in NATO next week, so watch this space. JAS Gripen fighter jets would be perfect for Ukraine.
Вітаю з України!! Так винищувачів не вистачає .. МІГ 29,СУ 27 не мають переваги в небі,..
I think Ukraine will get the F-16s soon enough. The bottleneck is just finishing the pilot training. Of course, the West should have started it from the very beginning of the war instead of this late into it.
The Dutch and Denmark are supplying F-16 this year … lots of them … it’s not that simple as you stated, pilots need training, logistics and spare parts logistics are part of the package.
Pilots are being trained. Ought to have begun back in 2022, but doesn't seem to have happened until 2023.
Bravo !!!!!
Getting a boat to stop quickly without sinking is an accomplishment. And accomplishment these people seem to be very proud of.
👍🏻🇺🇸✌️🏴🇬🇧🇸🇪🇳🇴✌️🇺🇦
Where's the water.
They are gonna need electricity.
Excellent and bravo for these craft, soldiers and support to Ukraine. It will also be a good idea to send some dozen or two of these craft and soldiers to Yemen at the Red sea providing a passage for commercial ships.
they'd be more of a hazard than help to commercial shipping lanes.
That reminds of my early days riding in USN PBR's.
Awesome news! When in late 2024 will they be receiving these boats?
The Ukrainian marine must be trained and learn how they work in exercises and then delivered to Ukraine. Everything can be ready in a few months.
if starting today, then by around August. if starting a few months ago and we are hearing about it now to stop potential info going to orcland, then anytime within the next week or so. if starting in a few weeks for training then October is likely.@@larszenthio1012
A good boat to add supplies and reinforcements where needed, behind enemy lines or not, ammo transports - Food logistics, fast in and fast out, a well placed squadron can change the tides and/or save lives.
Those vessels could be very useful for Spain

Not sure what the ones sent to Ukraine will have.
@@AlexKall me neither. One can only hope its the granatspruta version.
They can, but I don't think Mini-guns will be included, at least for Sweden it's a pretty new weapon system on these boats, along with some other capabilities, like dedicated mortar boats.
@@Alex-oc2vi I eblive the minigun version doesnt exist yet.
They have speed wow ~ speeds of up to 40 knots (74 km/h) and to slow down from top speed to a complete stop in 2.5 boat lengths. Amazing they can stop in 2.5 boat lengths
I think even US military purchased some of these.
Yeah coast guard i think
They did and now they produce them under license.
