Neptune ASM vs Moskva Cruiser: How the flagship was sunk? Fight for Freedom
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- The Moskva missile cruiser is a flagship and pride of the Russian naval fleet. Or, rather, the former flagship and pride. First it eventually did go *uck itself, and then in April, two Ukrainian Neptune missiles sent the ship underwater. As it turned out, the nature itself helped to sink the vessel-a radar had identified the enemy’s cruiser in a way it was not designed to. Check out the story of this unique operation in today’s video.

Very interesting about the lovely luck with the weather related extra radar echos. Such things have a history of accidental importance during many events in history but not much reported that it was a player with the Moskva's detection too.
But then do note - the cred and glory of the final outcome should mostly go to those who manage to make the most of an opportunity suddenly presented to them. Heróyam sláva!
The Moskva had a serious design flaw.
One small warhead striking one of the exposed missile launch tubes would start nasty fire and potentially a significant explosion.
EDIT An explosion in one of the missile launch tubes could set off a chain reaction in the remaining missile launch tubes.
@@richardivonen3564 There is so much more to it though. The USS Stark was hit by two Exocet missiles and made its way to port under its own steam. This was because the crew were properly trained and properly equipped for damage control. In the US Navy everybody who serves on a ship has to be trained in firefighting, even the cooks and if a ship has one, the ship's doctor. They are regularly drilled and tested to see that it has sunk in and that it stays there.
So the crew of the Stark were able to put out the fires that started after they were hit and get the ship working well enough to make its way to a port. Historically US Navy crews have even managed to put out fires on aircraft carrier hangar decks laden with fuelled and armed aircraft.
According to a number of Russian sailors posting on various social media sites damage control training in the Russian navy is poor and they have another problem; sailors often steal and sell safety equipment, *including fire extinguishers!* Yes, they steal and sell the equipment from their own ship that they might one day need to save their lives. So design flaws aside, the crew of the Moskva had little chance of controlling the fires; they were inadequately trained in damage control, poorly practised and probably didn't have all the equipment they were supposed to have to fight a fire.
EDITED for spelling.
@@richardivonen3564 Hell yeah. On ce a missile strikes a missile in a launch tube that's it. Not only does the missile cause an explosion, it also sets off everything on the ship that explodes. When the fires reach the ships magazine it's good night Irene.
Moskva...built in Ukrainian shipyards and retired by Ukraine too. Got to love the symmetry.
The Mockba must be feeling so lonely down there, it's time to send her some of their friends to make her some company, ain't it...?
Well said
As soon as Admiral Kuznetsov is repaired, he goes next. A good Admiral will closely inspect his (former) flagship.
Kuznetsov is Ivan's sole aircraft carrier. It carries 24 planes. It travels with tugboat.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 Heroyam Slava!!
@@handmadehearts Aw, you called Old Smokey an aircraft carrier! That's very 1995 of you. I prefer "artificial reef waiting to happen."
Ha-ha! You are right. Absolutely 😆
When Russia wins I hope you cry like a little girl.
According to the Orcs the current status of the Moskva is that it is on a special underwater operation...
😁
Didn't Ruzzia claim they had a new hypersonic submarine ?
ROFLMAO!! Soon to be joined by Admiral Kuznetsov. The Admiral must inspect the Moskva very closely to see that the spent shell has "Slava Ukraine" written on it. Heroyam Slava! 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦

Smert’ vorogam! 🔥🔥🔥
best!
At least you don't have to bother targeting Russia's only aircraft carrier as it doesn't need anybody's helping to break down. Think, -Ford- lada tough. 🤣
That would be harder to target as it generates its own cloud of smoke to obscure its location….. it would be easier to track it’s little friendly tug boat that always tags along with it for when it breaks down
@@robertpatrick3350
That thing needs sinking for the sake of the ozone layer
Actually I think Ford tough might be better based on my experiences with many Fords and one robust Lada.
@Anthony Taylor Their subs don't fare any better than their aircraft as well, thankfully.
When victory is won, maybe Odessa can start a tourism program where they scoopa dive and see the Moscova carcus. Need those $$$ you know.
You are so brainwashed to think Russia is going to lose. What a plank.
A comedian president exposing ruSSia for the joke that it is. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺❤️🇺🇦
I watched a couple episodes of his show, he wasn't much of a comedian, thank God he's a great president though!
Everybody knows that the Moskva went down after a sailor lit up in the powder magazine. He survived, and now he is traveling all over Russia with a pack of smokes and matches.
He prefers the famous US brand cigarettes, "Lucky Strike".
Ah yes, sure it did. It was the missles hitting the powder magazine
@@jboydayz That is what Putin's enemies want you to believe. The Moskva can never be hit by missiles, ever, it was an accident just like the accident that took Vladlen Tatarsky.
Moskva: awarded a promotion from missile cruiser to submarine.
Real well made content! Keep up the good work, this will end in a good way! 😊👍
Great production values. Just a note: Don't let your sound designers take over. The History Channel was ruined by blaring trumpets and thundering drums over the narrator. Sound designers tend to not hear words. They see pictures and hear exciting sounds. Others of us are interested in the intellectual content. Not to say they're oafs, they just aren't good kissers.

Nice job excellent
Even a year after the event, this is still one of the best stories of Putin's bloody war. Slava Ukraini!
Moskva is the Flagship of the Russian 1st "Oh Shit" Submarine Fleet. Several smaller Russian ships later joined it along with the landing ship Saratov sunk in Berdyans'k Ukraine previously.
2:18 A smart move by the operator to subject Moskva to ‘Crapt’ rather than making the blunder of selecting ‘Ha Tonky’.
The successful attack was a lot more than a matter of luck... Also,. The weather in the Black Sea was nowhere near the limit of what the Moskava was designed to operate in. Probably a lot more going on than just "they thought they were safe in the bad weather."
Glory to Ukraine
🇺🇦♥️♥️🇯🇲 !! GLORY to the heroes of Ukraine 🎉!!!❤
Mother nature in all her glory
Great explanation. Thanks.
What a happy bedtime story!!
Fate is a fickle beast and some seriously weird circumstances happen during a war to benefit one side or the other at times! 🤷♂️
Supposedly in 50-75 meter depth water. Raise it after the war. Great war trophy.
Didn't Russia already recover it?
Sent the moskva right to where it belongs ….in davey jones locker😉
Want to see a bridge become a submarine? Give Ukraine more ballistic missiles and you'll get such a spectacle.
I doubt the reasoning. The Moskwa superstructure is by no means stealthy, so it delivers a big radar echo, even beyond the usual range. And if the radar waves had bounced of the clouds, they would also have been severely attenuated by the water droplets in the air, rather reducing range. Also the waves will have produced a lot of radar clutter, further reducing sensitivity. Whatever, it was a great success, and Russians should be left in doubt of the limits of the Neptune system.
Agreed. But let's not let the scumbags from the Kremlin know the REAL reason why it was possible to sink it. They MUST be beaten.
Weather is always a vital factor in warfare
Все буде Україна! 🙏
Wow that sonar shot looks like my Hummingbird DI/SI.
Even nature is on Ukrainian side!
Moskva have greatest fire control system on planet Komrade. It use entire Black Sea.

I don't know anything about warships, but when I first saw this boat I was perturbed its whole deck was covered in bombs and missiles I first saw this boat at the start of the ukraine war and couldn't belive it. We're the designers a bit ... thick ?
Well, in theory they have multi layered defense and is nearly impossible to get through. See US ships which can really only be defeated via hypersonic missiles.
However, in operation none of the Moskva’s systems were working. Nearly no maintenance was done, and list of inspection violations a mile long. The ship was barely afloat. This is not to discredit the Ukrainians, but to demonstrate the incompetency and corruption at every level of the Russian military.
@Arailt but bombs on deck is stupid I think
That be the way they be rollin'. Damn the torpedoes and screw protection for the sailors. The grand Puhba of Moscow, Patriarch Kirill, told them their sins were forgiven if they died for good old Mother Russia. The Ukrainians were happy to oblige their boon and brought 300 or so orc sailors closer to Jesus. To be judged.
It was made as basically a seafaring technical. The huge, potentially nuclear missiles get all yeeted at a NATO carrier group, and the cruiser bugs out.
@@terryhatcher9644 Gonna be a lot of Russian sins forgiven. NOT. Slava Ukraini. 😀

Classic! How could you ever forget?
Two Finnish members of parliament proposed that Europe should jointly donate Leopard2 tanks to Ukraine. Translated:
“Ukraine's success has been based not only on a strong will to defend the country, but also on Western training and material support. This support will play a part in how the war ends. It is in our, Europe's, and the whole free world's interest that it ends with Ukraine winning as quickly as possible. It would be dangerous if Russia felt that it benefited from the criminal war of aggression in any way. Material support for Ukraine must therefore be continued and strengthened.
Although Ukraine has been resolutely supported, some weapons systems are still excluded from support. These include western, modern battle tanks. Such weapons would significantly increase Ukraine's strike capability on the battlefield. The new equipment requires training, and therefore it would be especially valuable to supply the Ukrainians with a large number of the same type of weapon that the Ukrainian forces can be effectively trained to use. ….
The Leopard 2 tank of German origin would be perfectly suited for the purpose. Thousands of pieces of its various variations have been built since the end of the 1970s, and the user countries include, in addition to Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Norway, Poland, Canada and Finland. The Leopard 2 is indeed one of the most commonly used western battle tanks.
A joint European effort would have the opportunity to give significant additional support to Ukraine's land combat capability and perhaps help Ukraine in a decisive way to maintain the momentum it has achieved in the war.
Finland has a total of about two hundred Leopard 2 battle tanks. Geography limits Finland's possibilities to hand over a large number of key equipment in use, but Finland's participation with even a small number of tanks would be valuable if the European tank effort can be started. It is needed now. By starting this conversation, we could also sow the seed of bigger and more effective support. ….”

I really wish someone would shed some light in that Mi-26 seen laying at the bottom of the sea near to Moskva. i'd love to know the story of that airframe loss.
Didn't know that? Was that a part of rescue operation loss? If the weather was stormy that day, it could be
Lmao, who brings a MI 26 to rough seas, hovering low to pick up drowning sailors?
That thing is as chonk as 3 Chinooks and has the maneuverability of a freight train. Not a sea skimming helicopter by any stretch, not even if the 160th SOAR flew the damn thing.
@@prfwrx2497 Range, range may be the answer
Do you have any evidence of this?
@@JAnx01 We saw all the evidence we needed from the Russian navy's photos. Now toddle off back to you Kremlin paymasters and put doubts back in their minds - your tactics and techniques to sow doubt in our minds no longer work. Tell you Uncle Vlad he's the world's biggest loser xxxxx 😀

Hello from Suchonimus - great Video!
Soooo nice this!!
One problem... it was not stormy .. just cloudy... look at the pics!!!..... they were hit with French supplied exsoset missiles..
Well done 👏 ✔️ 👍
Слава Україна! 🎉
Hear that the Russian fleet is on the move.Hope they come in range of the Ukraine anti ship missile
The Kremlin announced the "Moskva" had sunk in the storm, but it's no joke,
the official wind speed was 5 - 15 km/h at all weather stations at that time!
Ever since their flagship was sunk, they've been pissing off on Sewastopol!
sry f my engl.
Your english is fine... you got your point across
Come on man, you know the Americans sent the location to Ukraine. Excellent sinking though. Excellent work Ukraine!
It was one of our 🇺🇸🇺🇸 stealth unmanned subs that can stay submerged indefinitely
Speaking of the Neptune missile can that be carried inside a B737 like the P-8A future derivatives P-8B based off a Max 8 P-8C Max 9 P-8D Max 10 or A321-253N M3A. Absolutely like this
Hmmm, interesting theory but I’ll go with the theory of NATO AWACS provided the targeting information.
We'll just never know ;-) x
Incompetence.. It was incompetence.
The Moskva is lonely and would like a commrade ship to join it.
Moskva should have some company today (;
That is great news!@@selbix640
This is madness. How many died?😢

Russia's flagship artificial reef
tropospheric ducting
Same thing that sank the Kurst
So can we take this as official confirmation that the Moskva was indeed struck by a Neptune anti-ship missile? There’s a bunch of theories out there by both amateur & professional OSINT analysts, but nothing concrete.
Pretty sure Neptune missiles striking the Moskva has been the only story with substantial weight and proof.
@@BullGator-kd6ge so did the fact that the Moskva was in a state of disrepair before the conflict. So it's entirely possible that mechanical/electrical issues caused the fire which led to the sinking. The only way we can be sure is if someone were to confirm via diving to the site of the wreck. Impossible to do during this war.
@@thecheeze9001 It’s likely that Moskva’s lackluster condition helped its sinking due to the poor condition it was already in. Two missiles smacking its side was all it needed cause everything else seemed to be broken
Belive me bro- News
Article did not mention that a US Navy P8 Poseidon maritime patrol and recognizance plane was flying overwatch in range of tha Moskva and confirmed to the Ukrainians that it was the Moskva they were going to launch missile towards. Those planes have some tricky radars and probably can link to the SBR Satellite Lacrosse system which can find ships at sea.
Bet russians be like: Comrade! It is not sink! We special underwater operation! Tactical deep ocean exploration exersize!
Compelling story. You guys transformed the ship into a submarine.
Russian incompetence that took billions of Rubles to develop.
Soldiers crew Russian naval vessels? What did they do with the sailors?
What was the Pravda version?
The United States, UK, and NATO have continuously flown reconnaissance flights over the Black Sea and NATO countries monitoring Russia's forces. The Ukraine could have just as easily been informed of the Moskva's presence by those sources.
So... i think I will take Ukraines account...thank you very much.
@@righteousbyfaithinChrist The Ukrainians are very intelligent people. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have made zero statements regarding the bombing of the Kerch Straight Bridge, or any of the attacks on Russian airfields. Why educate your enemies on the true source of their intelligence. You don't understand apparently just how intelligent the Ukrainians are.
Russians use Ouija board for recon.
I don't think cloud cover would reflect the radar signal. In fact at those frequencies it would attenuate the signal and reduce the range. I think it was a cover story for NATO intelligence.
@@ianlewis6717 Precisely. Never educate your enemies.
Wrong. The moskva is a submarine
Sounds like a french missile called exoset that sank British vessels in Falklands.
Great analysis, now talk about the MQ-9 Reaper that was downed by a Russian Su-27 that pissed fuel on it and sent it to keep the Moskva cruiser company at the bottom of the black Sea...😏
They truly figured out what happened to the Moskva. Some highly trained orc sailor saw a lever in the control room that said DIVE. Being that he had limited intelligence, he thought it said DRIVE. Oh well, borscht happens. My big question is why the ship's controls were in English?
Just stock footage - you'd have not seen the controls for rust if it was the real Moskva, it was in a non-war-worthy state, with multiple, basic problems affecting its missile systems. Corruption lost it for Russia - AGAIN ! 😀
Similiar to a French Exocet missile.
nice video
"Neptune" - Kh-35?
By the way, I learnt that Ukraine ordered a ship from Turkiye and the ship was launched last year by the Ukrainian first lady. The ship is yet to be outfitted with weapons. If the Ukrainian Navy have any real existing manhood balls, they can sail the ship into the Black Sea, then the rest will be history 😏
Gods is with Ukraine 🇺🇦
✌️🇺🇦👍🏻🏴🇬🇧❤️
Putin's hubris.
Selecting the co-ordinates of the square involved some luck to hit a battleship.
The real genius was the second selection - four possible directions, but sure enough the correct square was selected.
And who knew Moskva had a length of only two pins? The most difficult one to sink!
a crew of 500 soldiers??? surely the Russian army were not in control of the vessel.
A real historical event that surely was a turning point in this war. Since that time Odessa is save from the Russian fleet - which is very important.
Do you havebetterpictures of 2:58?
Greetings from America everyone.
Bravo Ukrainia. Hope you will sell this missile 🇨🇵🇺🇦
