On May 15, the Russian Ministry of Defence reported on the first Anglo-French cruise missile Storm Shadow intercepted in the Donbass. Over the past day, Russian air defense systems intercepted one long-range cruise missile Storm Shadow, as well as ten HIMARS shells, seven US-made HARM anti-radar missiles the Russian Defense Ministry said.
In the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, in the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, 21 drones were shot down, the Defence Ministry said in a statement.
On the same day, the representative office of the LPR in the JCCC reported that Ukrainian troops fired 3 Storm Shadow missiles and 15 HIMARS missiles in the republic in a week. One person was killed and 16 others were wounded.
On May 14, Ukrainian media reported that Ukraine received 200 Storm Shadow cruise missiles from the United Kingdom and is set to receive 400 more in the near future. The British and Ukrainian governments have not confirmed the numbers reported by Ukrainian news sources.
The first reported use of Storm Shadow by Kiev was on May 12, when two missiles hit factories in Luhansk city. The very next day, May 13, at least one Storm Shadow hit the old internal affairs academy building in the city, marking the second attack with the long-rang missile.
On May 15, the city of Luhansk was again targeted by Ukrainian forces with missiles. According to preliminary reports, the Storm Shadow missiles were used.
The Storm Shadow is an Anglo-French low-observable, long-range, air-launched cruise missile developed since 1994 by Matra and British Aerospace, and now manufactured by MBDA. The Ukrainian Air Force has reportedly integrated the Storm Shadow on its Soviet-era Su-24 fighter bombers, which have the capability to carry the 1,300 kg cruise missile. With a price tag of 2 million pounds per a single Storm Shadow, the delivery of 600 missiles to Ukraine would cost the UK up to 1,2 billion.
The Russian Foreign Ministry called the UK’s decision to transfer long-range missiles to Ukraine another “extremely hostile step” that shows the “unprecedented level of involvement” of London in the conflict. The ministry warned that such a step would lead to a serious escalation of the situation in the conflict zone.
Russia has several options to neutralize the threat posed by the Storm Shadow, from deploying additional long-range air defense systems, like the S-400, in the special military operation zone, to destroying Ukraine’s remaining Su-24 fighter bombers and newly-delivered missiles on the ground.
Without governments, the people of this world could build a real civilization. You can’t find or build a civilization in this regime hell.
just me where did you hear that causing you to repeat it? It’s a seriously flawed statement.
The only civilization of postmodernism is money. We need a return to traditional values.
Gold and silver?
I mean the social values
Your only “social value” is sucking a donkey in your basement. Dumb fucking cretin.
and his only social skill….
basement dwellers are on the move
one more Wonderweapon that did not manage to help the Nazis. Nice try thou. How is the weather in Poland today? radioactive rain?
These weapons can kill people, including many civilians. Don’t write bullshit.
I did not write that they can’t kill people. Read the post you illiterate asshole.
Ok basement dweller. Hope you take that radioactive rain yourself. No? Only the others?
Keep spamming random garbage from your shitty basement you stupid piece of shit.
are you from basement or from gutter?
Of course they can kill people, but killing civilians does not help the war effort, it only hardens resolve. Hitting military targets is what furthers a war effort, and the UAF has been particularly bad at wasting ammo on civilians since this began in 2014.
Actually killing civilians can win a war. If the Ukrainians succeed in killing ever last Russian civilian in donbass, then Russia will have no reason to fight for the Russian people there. Killing civilians of a different group has always been a standard of warfare where one party seeks to assume full control of an area. You either kill, assimilate or remove and place your own. The UAF has tried this for many years and failed.
The bad thing is that they weren’t trying to assimilate them, I mean the UAF, while the other side like Russia, DPR and LPR tried to assimilate the opponents. That’s why they win.
That’s right, that’s why many Afghans supported the Taliban in the end.
Being these weapons are launched from aircraft maybe it’s time to step up the destruction of Ukrainian air bases.
There should not have been any Ukrainian air bases or even airports left standing for the past year.
There aren’t many that even function. Most are destroyed or heavily damaged. Fact us most planes operate out of secluded runways, improvised run ways and roads. In the east days of the conflict, most UAF surviving aircraft fled to these regions away from the main bases. It isn’t hard to have a few locations hidden across the Courtside where these planes can land and take off with mobile repair crews operating. These planes were built for this.
most of their airplanes flied to Poland even before the war started.
And especially no Ukrainian jets still flying.
Jolly good show chaps, from Blighty
The first of many prangs.
Another 199 to go and then
UK regime wasting 1.2 million a touch.
And literally a DU own goal recently in Khelmitsky.
This looks like the Crimean war though. But this time Turkey is neutral.
It has nothing to do withe the Crimean war. Don’t write bullshit.
This time , the tea drinkers sent the locals , not the colonials… also , you can understand his confusion as light brigades charges is still the main strategy :)
Yes because back then there weren’t any planes.
And tanks. And missiles. And Drones. So stop writing bullshit.
During the Crimean war Greek volunteers fought for Russia while you bitches today lick Anglo assholes for a few euros.
What “we bitches” you demented basement dweller? It is the government. And there are for sure Greek volunteers that fight for the other side just like many Greeks volunteered for Serbia.
Bitch you are the only demented basement dweller here along with your boyfriend jens you dumb loser retard. I was talking about the Greek Volunteer Legion you clueless retard. Serbia? Nothing to do with the Crimean war you utterly clueless and brainless stupid bitch.
That silly troll “Chris” is not greek. Hasbara from israel
any proof?
basement dweller is mad. i meant that in both cases, crimean and yugoslav war, greeks fought on the side against us/uk and some still fight on the same side on ukraine.
I see nothing wrong with some bombs going off around Britain… Nothing to do with the Russians of course and all equipment used being British and supplied to Ukraine. You can only blame local “Terrorists” for assassinating prominent names, and their servants.
City of London needs a hypersonic makeover. Londontown would appreciate it, I’m sure.
London has become a cesspit since the millennium and I agree that a Hyper sonic would be helpful, especially in the City of London’s financial district that has it’s own police force, lol.
Yes but why don’t the British do that? I secretly know the answer. Because they will lose their money and they won’t know what to do without them. They have gotten used to these parasites and they can’t imagine life without them. This happens to all countries though.
THE CITY in London is the most culpable before the US and then Poland.
Blackstone and Vanguard, Verizon, Lockheed Martin and other weapons companies,
these also profit. BP and Shell want to take over Russian energy.
There were many UK based companies operating in Russia before 2022, in partnership with Russian businesses, in a friendly and successful manner. Since then we have seen 3 leaders yet all do exactly the same. Satanists have seized power, as good a description as any, they merely amuse themselves by seeing people obey their wicked and foolish commands, just as in COVID. Now they squander the post cold war legacy of peace and care not if they destroy their followers along with their enemies.
It’s ok shooting this shit down, but those Nato bitches need to feel some pain.
the Albion b*tch must be considered enemy of the peoples around the world……in latinoamerica we never forget those infamious pirates in malvinas war
Let’s hope this is one of many. The people of Blighty are skint and soon to be without any energy. Then there will be revolution. So Russia, keep doing what you’re doing. It’s only a matter of time before the shysters running Blighty run out of tech weapons and the Ukrainian junta run out of servicemen to use them.
In the long run, we are all targets.
Wow it looks exactly like my dildo!
