Fragments from Russian Warship Hit by SCALP Missiles Scatter in Feodosia Town

Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed the Russian ship "Novocherkassk" in Feodosia, Crimea, on December 26, 2023.

The attack utilized SCALP-EG missiles with low-altitude flight profiles, avoiding detection by S-400 "Triumph," S-300V4, and "Buk-M3" radar positioned in lowlands north of the Crimean Mountains. American and British RQ-4B "Global Hawk" UAVs detected anti-aircraft missile systems in advance, influencing missile flight routes.

Video evidence showed a fire and powerful detonation, raising concerns about explosive cargo.

Russian ships like Novocherkassk were repurposed for transporting goods and equipment due to a lack of amphibious operation tasks.
