Ukraine uses long-range missiles secretly provided by US to hit Russian-held areas, officials say
U.S. officials say Ukraine for the first time has begun using long-range ballistic missiles, striking a Russian military airfield in Crimea and Russian troops in another occupied area overnight.
No more holding back lmao
Russia needs to be smacked hard.
Send all the weapons Ukraine wants apart from nuclear weapons and start sending in troops.
Ukraine will get its pre-2014 borders back.
Good.
Secretly supplied is an interesting take. The Ukrainians officially released video of them launching ATACMS hours after the airbase in Crimea was hit. I'm some jackass on the internet and had heard from multiple sources that the system was arriving. Poor headlines aside, definitely a good system, though it doesn't increase strike range over Scalp/Stormshadow, it just adds another way to hit. That's handy, I'm sure the numbers will be tiny though, it's pretty overpriced for what it is.
Alrighty then (slaps knees), come on UK MOD, let's get a thousand of these range-unlocked Stormshadows on to the next flight out of RAF Brize Norton to Warsaw.
