I took Maxman1’s post to refer to Underway’s post about the RN destroying Soviet sonobuoys.

I was referring to the Ruskies dropping a bomb a British destroyer, because the destroyer was moored in Odessa.

On the one hand, it just takes one pesky anti-ship missile to sneak it’s way in to ruin their day. And the British MoD’s entire repair/maintenance budget for a year

On the other hand, it also seems like a foolish way to lose a good chunk of your Air Force assets assigned to that region
