why hasn't there been any major naval battle in the Black Sea? do russians and Ukraine just not have the equipments to do any major work?

The Ukrainian Navy has zero operable ships
so essentially Russian navy dominate the sea so much that it serve no purpose
>Russian navy dominate the sea
You would think so, but no. It mostly dominates the bottom of the sea.
Considering Russia managed to lose their fricking Black Sea flagship a few months back to ashms no, I would not agree with that statement. The only strategic point their navy has served in the conflict is lobbing cruise missiles at apartment complexes from near port
> so essentially Russian navy dominate the sea so much
heh
The russian navy shot down one of their own fighters in the airspace they unilaterally controlled and lost their flagship to ground forces. Like yeah ukraine doesnt have a navy but russias navy is worth about as much as the ukrainian navy
The Black Sea Fleet is hiding since Moskva.
ukraine got no boats
Ukraine's navy and naval base was lost in 2014.
Disgusting how many traitors were in Ukraine's Navy.
The Russian Navy has zero operable ships
Tragically, Ukraine does not have a navy.
We'll fix that.....post-war.
>Ukraine does not have a navy
It does, it just doesn't have any boats for them.
Ukraine doesn't have a navy
Ever since the Moskva got BTFO the russian fleet has retreated way offshore to avoid a second helping
There will be if Putin nooooks, the entire black sea fleet will vanish without a single US ship entering the sea.
When you look at it from this POV russia yoinking the entire Sea of Azov is a pretty serious gain
Describe the Ukrainian Navy, OP. Elucidate us all.
Turkey played both sides in the Cold War which meant the Americans never really established a presence there.
As for the present conflict: Ukraine has no Navy and the Russian boats are no threat
The 1938 Montreux Convention limits Non-Black Sea countries' naval presence in the Black Sea. It's for the greater good. No European/American/Chinese vessel should be allowed in the black sea
Easily solved by making Ukraine the 51st state.
No thanks, I want ukraine to assfrick russia because its funny but I dont want them as another state
Armenian fleet hasn't arrived yet.
