Militarnyi reports that yesterday, three civilian ships (Israelian, Greek and Turkish/Georgian origin) were able to bypass the Russian blockade of the Black Sea and headed for Ukraine. It is reported that the passage was secured by a US P8 anti-ship aircraft.

P-8s are so silly because they're 737s and look exactly like a Delta flight I'd take, but are in fact deadly ship killers lmao.

They're apparently armed with anti-ship torpedoes and missiles. I assume they just drop them from the hatch in the back.
