Another cargo ship heading to Ukraine was hit in the Odessa Gulf.

Another cargo ship heading to the port of Odessa was struck in the Gulf of Odessa, according to Ukrainian media outlets citing Odessa-based public groups.

Russia continues to strike Ukraine's Black Sea coast. Following the overnight strike on the port of Yuzhny, reported by the Ministry of Defense, strikes began on Odesa and Chornomorsk. First, two Onyx anti-ship missiles struck Chornomorsk in the morning, hitting a military depot, then strikes continued on Odesa throughout the day.



According to Ukrainian sources, the city was raided missiles, launched by Russian Tu-22M3s. Earlier, Ukrainian monitoring resources reported the takeoff of four missile carriers from the Engels-2 airfield. At the same time, Russian drones- kamikaze "Geran-4 Seeker". It is still unknown what exactly was hit.



Meanwhile, a cargo ship is on fire in the Black Sea, approaching Odessa, and is allegedly preparing to sink. This information is coming from Odessa-based public groups. Some sources report two damaged vessels, but the second shows no visible signs of damage, despite both vessels being located a considerable distance from the shore. According to some reports, the bulk carrier did sink, and the crew was evacuated to the second cargo ship.

Russia continues to cut off Ukraine's maritime logistics by destroying port infrastructure and attacking ships involved in military supplies to the Kyiv regime.

              Guys, I'm explaining to you the origin of the expression "court" go", and whoever has a conscience (Russians definitely do), then remove the minuses from a good girl love OK!?
              So:
              The interval between the positions of a point on the helical line of a propeller, corresponding to its complete revolution around the longitudinal axis, is called underway screw.
              Those. Screw stroke - is the distance between two positions of a point on the propeller helical line that correspond to its full rotation around the longitudinal axis.
              Naturally, when a propeller is operating, any point on its blade moves along a helical line - simultaneously rotating and moving forward along with the vessel. Screw stroke characterizes the distance that a point travels during one complete revolution around its axis.

                I studied (passed) the TUS a long time ago, but it seems to me you're trying to define the pitch of a propeller. Since a propeller will get stuck in a solid, pitch is a very virtual concept. If I remember correctly, pitch is usually defined as 0,7 times the radius.

                Although, you're partly right: they walk, they swim with strokes. But what about paddle steamers? request

        It's very simple. A vessel is afloat when it's neither sinking nor moving. A vessel is underway when it not only floats but also maintains the ability to move. A vessel can only float with the current, but it moves under its own power (using a propeller, wheels, sail, etc.). Therefore, it's impossible to say a vessel was sailing to port if it was propelled by a propeller or engine. Sailors who talk about an ice hole and waste in it are simply repeating a memorized phrase, because they themselves don't understand the difference between "floating" and "moving." And by the way, the title of "Ship Captain" only exists on civilian vessels; on military vessels, only "Ship Commander" exists. I had to register for this thread.

            Regarding the "sea captain" and other similar contradictions, I suggest you read a once-popular argument about the intricacies of the Russian language. I'll quote it here:
            In front of us is a table. On the table is a glass and a fork. What are they doing? The glass is standing, and the fork is lying down. If we stick the fork into the tabletop, the fork will also stand up. That is, vertical objects are standing, but horizontal objects are lying down? Let's add a plate and a frying pan to the table. They seem horizontal, but they are standing on the table. Now let's put the plate in the frying pan. It is lying there, although it was standing on the table. Perhaps these objects are ready to use? No, the fork was ready when it was lying down. Now a cat climbs onto the table. It can stand, sit, and lie down. If in terms of standing and lying down it somehow fits the logic of "vertical-horizontal", then sitting is a new property. It sits on its butt. Now a bird has landed on the table. It is sitting on the table, but it is sitting on its feet, not on its butt. Although it should be standing. But it cannot stand at all. But if we kill a poor bird and stuff it, it will stand on the table. It might seem like sitting is an attribute of a living thing, but a boot also sits on a foot, even though it's not alive and has no bottom. So, try to figure out what's standing, what's lying down, and what's sitting. And we're still surprised that foreigners find our language difficult and compare it to Chinese.

    The statistics are not in Russia's favor - about 15 Ukrainian and more than 150 Russian, mostly dry cargo ships and tankers of the "shadow fleet".

    How did you calculate it, I wonder? One hundred and fifty is the hokey version. Well, you added a little. But for some reason, ours decreased it. Why is that?
    Ours, for example, say that they hit 24 ships in just one week, and not 15, as you claim.
    And then, where do you think all this darkness of ships affected by the khokhol is located?

    As you can see, missiles and drones striking the surface of large vessels don't cause them to sink. Torpedoes are needed. Air-launched torpedoes or drone-launched torpedoes. Something similar.

      And bottom mines. But that's more complicated.

      Any flooding means pollution with all sorts of rubbish and fuels and lubricants. Obviously, our military cares about the ecology of the Black Sea, which is not the case with the enemy (if anyone doesn’t understand, it’s ironic).

    And also "floating staff", "floating craft" and even the film "Solo Voyage".

    The ship's command staff also develops, and the captain approves, a "transition plan" before the next voyage... wink

      I don't argue. A sea crossing, full speed ahead, but buoyancy calculations, safe sailing. Ordinary sailors use both words. Incidentally, not the command staff, but specifically the second mate. And not for the crossing, but for the entire voyage. hi

    What, there's nothing to sink ships with?

    Russia continues to cut off Ukraine's maritime logistics by destroying port infrastructure and attacking ships involved in military supplies to the Kyiv regime.

    The need for such strikes was already mentioned on the website at the very beginning of the SVO! How many weapons have been supplied to the Banderites since then through this infrastructure, which has been in operation for so long, our warriors had to grind it down!
