“I can only say that, as far as I know, they were already used after we announced the sending of these missiles to Ukraine. But I won’t go into details,” Wallace said. According to him, “Storm Shadow” missiles, “which provide a wide range of destruction, for example, fighter jets”, allow Ukraine to partially compensate for the lack of modern aircraft, which it has not yet been provided with.
“We can’t provide fighter jets, but we can help provide one of the things fighter jets can do – hit [ienaidnieka] in the back,”
the head of the British Ministry of Defense emphasized.
In turn, Norwegian Defense Minister Bjorn Arild Grams told a press conference that Norway “in close cooperation with the United Kingdom” is handing over three “Arthur” artillery radars and up to eight MLRS multiple launch missile systems to Ukraine. MLRS M270 systems can hit targets at a distance of about 80 kilometers. In 2022, Ukraine received several MLRS from the United Kingdom.
