Britain to share classified missile tech with Ukraine to boost long-range strikes

Britain says it will share classified missile technology with Ukraine to bolster Kyiv’s ability to strike targets behind the front lines, including the use of long-range ground-launched weapons like the SCALP missile with a 225-kilogram warhead. The move builds on prior UK missile support (including Storm Shadow in 2023) and is part of broader collaboration with defense firms to develop systems surpassing 500 kilometers in range. Moscow condemned the move, while analysts say such capabilities would complement Ukraine’s drone power and firepower.

Ukraine’s Voronezh Strike Fuels Storm Shadow vs ERAM Debate

Ukraine reportedly struck the Voronezh VZPP plant (a maker of electronic components for Kh-101 and R-500 missiles) with cruise missiles on June 22. While Storm Shadow is the most widely discussed option, some sources point to new ERAM missiles (AGM-188A) with a range over 930 km, and there is speculation about a two-wave attack to overwhelm air defenses. The visible damage—collapse of two floors and extensive destruction—also raises questions about warhead size, suggesting a possible mix of weapons, but verification remains pending.
