On May 13, 2023, the Russian Defense Ministry reported that Ukrainian aircraft had targeted and successfully struck two industrial sites in the Russian-controlled city of Luhansk, located in Eastern Ukraine using Storm Shadow long-range cruise missiles, which were provided by the United Kingdom.
The Storm Shadow, a joint British-French innovation, is a long-range, stealth cruise missile designed for precise strikes on high-value targets, such as enemy infrastructure and military bases.
The Storm Shadow cruise missile has a weight of approximately 2,900 pounds (about 1,300 kilograms) and is equipped with a conventional warhead that weighs 990 pounds (roughly 450 kilograms). Its maximum body diameter measures 19 inches (approximately 48 centimeters), and it boasts a wingspan of 120 inches (or three meters). The missile's propulsion is achieved through a Microturbo TRI 60-30 turbojet engine, propelling it at speeds of Mach 0.8. This formidable piece of weaponry has an impressive range of about 350 miles (approximately 560 kilometers or 300 nautical miles).
It is armed with a powerful BROACH warhead, designed to breach fortified structures before exploding, thus inflicting substantial damage.
Launched from an aircraft, the Storm Shadow navigates independently using terrain-mapping technology, following a pre-determined flight path while maintaining a low altitude to evade enemy radar detection. Ukraine's air force can install the Storm Shadow on its Soviet-style jets, and like any cruise missile, it can be pre-programmed from the ground.
Ukraine's Soviet-era Su-24 Fencer jet fighters have been equipped with the missile and, crucially, will therefore be able to launch surgical strikes from a safer distance.

Uhhh, . You can blow a submarine up, burn it down, completely wreck it and otherwise mangle it in every imaginable way but you can't *sink* anything in a *dry* dock.

Why should we have to support Ukraine with military equipment so they can defend themselves, when Ukraine's own government didn't support its military by giving them the equipment needed to protect Ukraine.

These storm shadow missiles are precise but have pathetic destructive power, the Russian cheap drones are better 💀

What drones? The ones they have to buy from Iran??

Cheap drones are part of war nowadays and jes they are very effective, but they are limited in range and firepower. Cruise missiles are expensive but the long range and the firepower can eliminate important military targets. So both weapons are effective for what they build.

I love how this channel turned to a neo liberal political propaganda channel rather than an engineering channel.

ukraine offensive but how long when they already failing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@larsrons7937 9 ай бұрын

Really? russian supplies, artillery, soldiers, logistics, morale, tanks, etc. and you name it, steadily being decimated towards being non-cabable of conducting their operations, is that what you call 'failing'? The rest of us call it 'shaping the battlefield'. One would be stupid to think that the Ukrainian counter offensive is measured in distance advanced at this point (though the Ukrainians have already liberated many times more territory than russia captured in a year).
