Did you know that Ukraine actually scuttled their ships early in the war. When they never even lost that port...

Did you know that Russia lost a capital ship in a war against a country that doesn’t have a navy

Yep. I do think it sucks that the reason they don't have a navy is Ukraine destroyed it themselves. Those first few days were wild.

That was a mistake in my opinion.

Yep, Ukraine was scrambling at beginning of invasion and surprisingly militias were massive MVP, by punching above it's weight giving chance for army to organise. Ukrainian Navy on the other hand, failed badly.
