Description
Struck on 28 August 2025 in the Sea of Azov near Temryuk Bay by FPV drones operated by Ukraine's Defence Intelligence (HUR) special unit Prymary. Two drones hit the corvette: one struck the masts, destroying the MR-352 Positiv radar system, and the other impacted the bridge door area. The 350-kilometre engagement range set a record for FPV drone strikes against naval targets. The corvette was forced to withdraw from its combat patrol zone. Ukraine's HUR stated the strike disrupted a planned Kalibr cruise missile attack against Ukrainian territory.
