“Immediately after their installation, one of the batteries of the Neptune complex will be put on combat duty,” Rear Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, Commander of the Ukrainian Navy was quoted as saying by Army Inform.

The Neptune uses the newest cruise missile P-360. The P-360 missile weighs 870 kg, the warhead weights 150 kg, and its range is up to 300 km. The missile's speed is about 900 km/h, and the altitude is from 3 to 10 meters.

It is possible to launch 24 missiles simultaneously with a full volley of 6 missile systems. Pause between launches is from 3 to 5 seconds. The system can be deployed up to 25 km from the coastline. The required time for its deployment is up to 15 minutes.

Neptune missiles are designed to destroy enemy ships with a displacement of up to 5000 tons, as well as ground targets. The systems were developed on the basis of the Soviet Kh-35 missile.

You had better worry about russians who lost their brain team.

Underestimating Ukraine, you seem to have forgotten that Ukraine was the pilot country in USSR.

The news will be a large answer to your question:

The Antonov aviation concern has manufactured the first production An-178 transport aircraft without Russian parts. This was stated by the president of Antonov State Enterprise Alexander Los, reports Ukrinform.

"This is the first aircraft without Russian parts. We are accused of not producing serial aircraft for several years. But with the beginning of the Russian military aggression in 2014, we lost not only the sales market, but also the market for the supply of important components. It took some time. import substitution and search for new suppliers, "he said.

According to Los, on this type of aircraft about 2/3 of the equipment of corporations from the United States of America, another third - of domestic production.
