Kind of didn't believe it at first but multiple Russian channels reporting it, that's a crazy achievement, fucking sea drones blowing helicopters out the skies. Little sea drone cruising through the sea, crashing through the waves, aiming at a goddamn helicopter and downing it, Lol.

Kallas's remark is yet another example of how everyone has shifted their rhetorics to accomodate for Trump. That guy certainly needs to be poked in his own way, compared to more traditional US presidents. Glad to see we're (more or less) ready for the change of course, as much as I loathe the change.
