Amid the ongoing Russian invasion, the new Ursula sabotage-ready river drone can either strike with explosives or deploy an FPV drone mid-mission, giving Ukrainian forces new options for river-based operations.
Drone warfare has defined much of the Russo-Ukrainian war, with unmanned systems deployed across air, land, and sea. Now, Ukraine is also advancing a fourth domain—river warfare—by developing robotic systems designed for inland waters alongside its growing maritime drone fleet. According to Militarnyi, the Association of Ukrainian Engineers reports that Ukrainian firm NoviTechNet has developed a new compact unmanned surface vessel named Ursula. Measuring about one meter in length, the vessel can support different mission profiles depending on its configuration. The design is intended for sabotage and reconnaissance missions in difficult, narrow river networks and front-line water zones where larger systems cannot operate. This is not the first Ukrainian-made unmanned boat built for river operations. Earlier this year, Ukraine’s Defense Forces began testing the Black Widow 2 drone boat. Like Ursula, it measures one meter long. It weighs 8 kg, reaches speeds up to 40 km/h, and has an operational range of 10 km.
Black Widow 2 can remain in standby mode for several days while awaiting a target. However, unlike Ursula, it does not carry or launch FPV drones.
“Controlling a one-meter electric boat may seem like child’s play, but the vessel is more dangerous than it looks. Besides spying and recon missions, the river drone can be loaded with several kilograms of explosives. The 3 kg payload, according to the developer, is enough to destroy small boats and vessels,” Militarnyi noted.
There are three main configurations for the drone: In its reconnaissance role, Ursula carries optical and thermal cameras atop a stabilized mast, streaming real-time video of riverbanks, channels, and coastal approaches to operators up to several kilometres away. The vessel’s low profile makes it difficult to detect visually or by radar. As a floating mine, Ursula carries up to 2 kg of high-explosive charge. The warhead is detonated via secure radio command when a target enters a pre-programmed proximity zone, allowing remote engagement of enemy vessels or infrastructure without exposing operators. As a drone carrier, Ursula’s deck accommodates small FPV drones—either for over-the-horizon scouting or performing strikes. After aquatic launch, the drones ascend on command, drawing power from the vessel’s onboard charging and mission-upload systems. This capability permits a seamless transition from waterborne approach to aerial assault without deploying larger manned platforms.
