Shantar Sea

The Shantar Sea (Russian: Шантарское море) is a small coastal sea in the northwestern Sea of Okhotsk.

It is bounded to the north by Bolshoy Shantar Island, to the east by Malyy Shantar Island, and to the south by Tugur Bay.

History

The sea was frequented by American whaleships hunting bowhead whales between 1853 and 1874.[1] Russian schooners from Mamga also cruised for bowheads in the sea from 1865 to 1871.[2]

gollark: Anyway, for drone swarms I recommend just screnching them and stealing them, or failing that (I mean, you could do both), hijacking the drone swarm and sending it against your enemies.
gollark: If a drone is going around ramming you you can just scrench it. If a drone drops HECf-251 on you, it can go high enough that you can't see it, drop it once, and fly away before you know what happened.
gollark: Yes, and it's very hard to defend against.
gollark: It has radars. By default those can only get your distance, but there's an option for providing coords and trilateration is a thing.
gollark: Computronics does, though.
