Russian bomber pilots will fear being shot down near the Black Sea. Therefore, there is a rush to send missiles to target targets and deprive the area.

This is reported by the UK Ministry of Defense.

According to the report, the merchant ship Aya was hit by a missile in the Black Sea on the 11th of April, when it sailed from Odessa to Egypt, laden with 26 thousand tons of grain. The AS-4 KITCHEN (X-22) anti-ship missile was launched by the Russian Tu-22M3 bomber, which was operating in this area at that time. It is absolutely certain that the presence of detonation allowed catastrophic injuries to occur.

“It is unlikely that the ship Aya was a prepared weapon for this attack and, most likely, was attacked through poor targeting procedures by Russian pilots who were using old ammunition. Russia has regularly attacked targets along Ukraine's Black Sea coast, including the Snake Islands, in an attempt to disrupt export activity and destroy any military assets in the area, it appears domain.

According to British intelligence data, After the loss of the Tu-22M3 from China, Russia became cautious in its strike operations in the Black Sea. It is realistic that this incident was caused by those pilots who hastily misidentified the Aya ship as their target, hoping to deprive the area of ​​the site after launch for fear of being attacked by a Ukrainian missile on the ground.

"Rocket X -22 consistently failed to cope with the assigned tasks in the conflict in Ukraine. The launch of a supersonic winged missile on an incorrect course with an extremely dangerous target in international waters demonstrates extremely bad and unprecedented aviation practice,” says the British Ministry of Defense.
