Description
Project 12150 Mangust-class patrol boat destroyed on 6 May 2024 by a Ukrainian MAGURA V5 uncrewed surface vessel near Chornomorske in western Crimea. The operation was conducted by GUR military intelligence unit "Group 13," which released video footage of the strike. The 31-tonne Mangust is a high-speed patrol boat capable of 50 knots, used for coastal patrol and interception missions. The estimated loss was approximately $3 million. Her destruction continued the steady attrition of Russian small combatants by Ukrainian naval drones.
