They did scuttle their flag ship, which was the Sahaydachniy, which was a Krivak III frigate. It was under repairs and the Ukrainian Navy didn't want to give the Russian's a propaganda win, and sank it.
Other then that most of Ukraine's navy was captured or destroyed in 2014. They were trying to rebuild it, but its mostly composed of a few small patrol boats and missile boats. Most of their combat capable boats were reported destroyed or captured.
My gut tells me that the Russian Navy was attacked by land assets. or by something completely crazy.
