#3 What roll did a P8 play in the sinking of the Russian flagship Moskva in the black sea?
The sinking of that ship may have saved Odessa from a naval invasion.
Is the P8 able to monitor submarine activity in the Black Sea from a distance?

A far as I can tell, none! There apparently no P-8 flying over the Black Sea area since the Ukraine war started.
