Ukrainian forces (ВСУ) have reportedly begun using British K3 Scout uncrewed surface vessels (USVs) to strike Russian ports in the Black Sea. The scale of their deployment is currently unknown.
Defense Express suggests the K3 Scout drones are being used in trials, as Ukraine's defense industry offers similar, more cost-effective alternatives. The cost of a single K3 Scout is approximately $821,000.
