What is "Storm Shadow" ?
He's cobra commanders ninja bodyguard
But now he fights for Ukraine because Putin is giving evil military groups a bad name
British/French made an air-launched cruise missile with a 550km stand off range. They are fairly low profile so hard to detect and the high stand off range makes it safer for the pilots flying the launch platform.
Notably the missile also has antibunker capability. Which is why Russian command centers are blowing up regularly.
It’s a British cruise missile. IIRC it was co developed with the French but the French call it SCALP. It’s been fucking up targets deep in Russian controlled territories.
I just realized that SCALP is a mild pun in reference to Tomahawk... hm.
it's a death missile. [edit] it is a boring bomb. if russia left ukraine today, that stupid missile would be nothing more than a boring bomb.
