    Beautiful. Always good to see those imperial warships sink, but that fact that this will stop them from launching cruise missiles is incredible.

        Yeah you absolutely can. And from air. The biggest benefit is probably that this limits the number of angles into Ukraine russia can launch missiles from, which makes air defense easier.

          Pretty much. This doesn’t limit the angle since the Kremlin can still launch from a bomber over the Black Sea, but it means they have 6 fewer missiles in an attack. So, air defence will have an easier time taking them out.

        Russia is using anti ship missiles to hit land targets. The launchers for those are only on ships. That does not mean, you can not put them on land, but it is going to be some engineering work.

        Maybe more importantly those missiles are a threat to Ukranian shipping.
