With the resources currently available in Ukraine, one can only limit the Russian fleet from sailing in the Black Sea. To destroy it, you need more powerful weapons and the organization of the whole operation.

“To destroy the Russian fleet, it takes a whole operation. Because the goal is Sevastopol, Balaklava. They are covered by air defense, and most missile strikes will be neutralized. All we can do now is simply restrict Russians from sailing in a certain part of the Black Sea, within 200 km. The Neptune and Harpoon anti-ship missiles can operate at such a distance from the coast, the expert said.
He added that the Harpoon missiles, which are now coming to Ukraine as aid from the United States, are analogous to the Ukrainian Neptune missile. At one time, the Soviet Union copied it, and Ukraine has already made “Neptune” on the basis of Soviet developments.

“If you look into the eyes of reality, the Harpoon is not a superweapon with which we can destroy the Russian Black Sea Fleet. That is, if someone thinks that right in Sevastopol we will be able to sink enemy ships, it is not true. Moreover, the missiles that are transmitted to us are most likely archaic modifications, as they were disarmed in 2004. These are not modern options used by Great Britain or the United States, “Zhirokhov said.
