3 big ass flotillas all staring at each other wondering wtf they're gonna do in the age of drone warfare, safe only because they know their enemy is too good natured to strike when it's convenient.
I can only presume Russia wants to drag Chinese manufacturing capacity and Iranian strategic resources into their war against Ukraine. If I was a Ukrainian skim operator, I'd be salivating.
So China and Iran tow Russian vessels around as a military exercise. Sounds like good practice for a future alliance. I recommend developing a good way to cut away a sinking, possibly burning Russian vessel.
