(MENAFN- UkrinForm) This was announced by Vice Admiral Oleksii Neizhpapa, Commander of the Ukrainian Navy, on Facebook.

“Such boats are already in service with our fleet, and now there are even more of them; a full division has been formed based on this equipment,” Neizhpapa said.

According to the commander of the Navy, CB90s are among the best in the world and are used in many countries, including NATO member states.

They are fast, maneuverable, and reliable. They are designed to perform a variety of tasks: from landing personnel and defending the coast to patrolling and protecting civil shipping.

The boats are equipped in accordance with the requirements of modern warfare at sea, and the crews have undergone comprehensive training to effectively use all the capabilities of the equipment.

“I personally tested the Combat Boat 90 in action. I am convinced that these boats will be a powerful tool in the hands of our soldiers,” Neizhpapa emphasized.
