The U.S. Army inspected Ukrainian naval helicopters as launch platforms for air helicopters during an exercise in Michigan.

The 7th Infantry Division used MV7 boats built by the Ukrainian company UFORCE, equipped with launch surfaces on their hulls, during the Kydon Quest 26 exercise.

The unmanned boats operated alongside a Mk VI patrol vessel in trials focused on Indo-Pacific relevant coastal warfare.

Magura's helicopters proved effective in combat in the Black Sea, where Ukraine used them against Russian ships.

This is the second known use of boats by U.S. forces this year.
