https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/s/oJWjah80C1 In the "first combat mission of this type known," a Ukrainian sea drone delivered a ground drone to Russian-held territory on the Kinburn Spit, Ukraine's 123rd Territorial Defense Brigade said on July 13. "A ground-based robotic complex was delivered to the enemy shore by an unmanned sea platform, landed on the occupied territory and used to perform a combat mission," the brigade said in a post on social media. "This is a new approach to war, where the most dangerous tasks are performed by a machine, and the Ukrainian military creates new rules of modern combat," it added. Ground drones are becoming an increasingly important part of Ukraine’s war effort, helping transport supplies, evacuate wounded soldiers, clear mines, and carry out combat missions without putting troops at risk. In a video accompanying the post, the ground drone is seen disembarking a sea drone on the shore at the Kinburn Spit. It is later seen firing at a target, but no details were given about damage or casualties it caused.
