Where is Ukraine’s Navy?

Updated on

One question that has been brought up throughout the Russian invasion is "where is Ukraine's Navy?" I will be looking at this question in regards to their naval vessels rather than personnel who carry out an array of communications, intelligence, and logistical operations. Ukraine had lost most of its naval vessels (nearly 75%) following the annexation of Crimea by Russia in 2014, which resulted in the capture of the Sevastopol Naval Base. Since then, Ukraine's naval vessels, which now consists of about two dozen ships plus auxiliary support and patrol craft, have largely been docked in Mykolaiv, Berdyansk, Mariupol, and Odessa.
