Implicated.

This is coolbert:

From the bulgarianmilitary.com Internet website some further information regarding the recent sinking of the Russian missile gun boat. 

American P-8 naval warplane Poseidon providing intelligent/reconnaissance and targeting information to the Ukrainian their attack upon the Russian missile gun boat?

Russian missile gunboat doomed, and thanks in large measure to American naval aviation assets the Black Sea?

"US P-8 implicated in latest strike against Russian missile boat"

From https://bulgarianmilitary.com | By Boyko Nikolov On Feb 2, 2024.

"The recent attack launched by a cluster of Ukrainian kamikaze drones led to the sinking of a Russian missile warship named Ivanovets from the Black Sea Fleet. Tragically, all 44 crew members on board went down with the ship. Some speculate that US P-8A Poseidon technology may have aided the Ukrainian side in this operation."

"On February 1st, the Ukrainian Armed Forces retaliated by targeting the Russian Black Sea Fleet. They accomplished this through a battalion of naval drones flying over Lake Donuzlav in Crimea. Impressively, one of these drones managed to overcome the ship’s defense mechanisms, leading to a massive explosion after it struck the port side."

Clarification here:  Russian missile gun boat attacked not by flying drones, but by unmanned surface vessels of the Ukrainian Navy. Kamikaze USV surface vessels, explosive boats.

See from the H. I. Sutton Covert Shores Internet website that entire listing/inventory of Ukrainian unmanned surface vessels the Ukraine Conflict.

See also the H. I. Sutton Internet website another entry devoted to explosive boats of the unmanned surface vessel category.

See yet more the embedded video from the bulgarianmilitary.com website of the sinking of the Russian missile gun boat. Fairly decent resolution that ship never having as chance. Total loss 44 sailors perishing. All hands lost!

Hardly also the first time P-8 warplane implicated in combat naval action the Black Sea.
