Dramatic new footage shows Ukraine’s Sea Baby drone terrorising Putin’s invaders – before returning to fight another day

DRAMATIC new footage has emerged showing Ukraine's Sea Baby drone wreaking havoc on Russian positions and terrorising Putin's troops.

Unlike Kamikaze drones that blow up near enemy targets, the advanced Sea Baby drones are designed to attack and return to the battlefield to fight another day.

Incredible footage released by Kyiv's troops shows these powerful unmanned boats firing deadly rockets straight into the air to target Russian positions.

This includes Russian-occupied areas of Kinburn Spit, which extends west into the Black Sea between the Dnipro-Bug estuary and Yahorlyk Bay.

With a range of up to 1,000km, these advanced drones can be seen hitting long-range targets with accuracy while defending themselves from being damaged by enemy attacks.

Military bosses are understood to have assembled a team of specialists from across the fields to ramp up the production of these drones.

And they are being made in “underground” factories which Putin’s missiles cannot reach. 

Vasyl Malyuk, head of Ukraine's security service SBU said: "The Security Service of Ukraine has brought together the best specialists from many fields.

"These are engineers, programmers, and sailors currently working on the production and further successful use of naval drones.

"This is a production facility. It is located in Ukraine at one of the underground factories.";

A spokesman for the SBU said: "This is not a classic kamikaze drone whose task is to find a target, hit it and explode.

"These are drones that perform tasks and return to the base. 

"In particular, SBU drones can be used to carry out remote mining, and they can also be used to [deploy] various types of weapons, including Grad systems. 

“So the new generation of SSU Sea Baby drones - which all Ukrainians can donate to - are already being used in combat. 

“One example of such use is strikes on [Russian] positions on the Kinburn Spit from rocket launchers.”

Ukraine's military has mastered drone warfare since Putin first invaded the country in February 2022.

Since early 2023, the cheap, explosive, flying machines have become one of Kyiv's biggest success stories on the battlefield.

Ukraine’s “Achilles” troops are specialised drone warfare units within the 92nd Separate Mechanized Brigade, playing a pivotal role in Ukraine’s ongoing defence against Russian forces.

These troops have gained recognition for their expertise in using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in combat, particularly in repelling Russian assaults and destroying enemy equipment.

The battalion operates highly effective UAVs, such as the "Vampire" drones, which have been instrumental in targeting Russian positions and equipment, particularly in nighttime operations.

It comes after Ukrainian troops took on Putin's soldiers in a frontline town in true Call of Duty style.

Incredible footage showed the relentless battle on the streets of Toretsk, in the war-torn Donetsk region.

The two-minute video shared on X shows Ukrainian units of the Lyut Assault Brigade at work as they wipe out enemy troops.

Just like in video games, a red frame would flash at every moment one of Mad Vlad's men - who would have a Russian flag indicating their position - was hit.

A pair of dark wings would then be added to the flag once the enemy was wiped out.

The action-packed clip begins with Kyiv's brave men heading to the battleground in a truck before they unload the vehicle and head off to fight.

A series of POV scenes unfolds showing the flawless battle tactics on the ravaged streets of Toretsk as blasts can be seen and heard in the background.

Located close to the frontlines of the war in eastern Ukraine, Toretsk has been heavily affected by the war.
