I love it but I would edit to

28 tankers on the Azov tonight, 28 tankers at sea

A drone flies through the wheelhouse door, and now it’s on the sea floor!

27 tankers on the Azov tonight…

However it still needs work, as far as I am aware most of these ships haven't actually been sunk.

The metaphor should be something more like "light a tanker on fire and the rest scatter like a cockroaches from a switched on light."

Maybe...

28 tankers on the Azov tonight, 28 tankers at sea

A drone flies into the bridge, and now it's nothing but flaming carnage!

27 tankers on the Azov tonight…

The wheelhouse furnishing business for commercial shipping is about to hit some intense bottlenecks.

I don't imagine shipbuilders have planned supply chain structures with the idea that the bridge of a ship may be destroyed repeatedly throughout the lifetime of a ship...

There once was a ship that put to sea
The name of that ship was the Yevgeni
The drones struck hard, her bow dipped down
Blow up Magyar boys, blow.

Soon may the droneswarm come
To blow them all to kingdom come
One day, when the fightin' is done
We'll take our sea and go
