BRITAIN'S 30 YEAR OLD, LOW TECH STORM SHADOW MISSILES GET BLOWN OUT OF THE SKY IN UKRAINE

 The British Great Satans are really leading Ukraine and the whole of western Europe to their destruction. The British media are proudly proclaiming that for the first time in many, many years the British GDP this year is outpacing Germany's GDP growth. 

After crippling the German economy by blowing up that Nordstream gas pipeline and by cutting off Russian gas and other raw materials to the German economy certainly the British economy can outpace the German economy. The real targets in the British American War against Ukraine are Germany and western Europe. The Brits want to cut the Germans down to size. Germany has become a behemoth in Europe where Germany basically defines Europe. For example since long ago any changes in the train schedules in Germany will trigger changes in other train schedules throughout Europe.  And Angela Merkel (assisted by Donald Trump asking her to pay "protection money" to the Americans) showed that Germany can easily assume a leadership role in Europe, something that has not happened since the days of Herr Hitler. The Brits did not like the situation at all. Since the end of WW2 the Brits have 'secured' Europe through their 'proteges' the US and hence NATO.

But their plans are unravelling. They picked the wrong 'boogeyman' to implement their plans. Russia has always been a world superpower - make no mistake about that. Just Russia's size alone as the world's largest country, covering eight time zones and with access to an unbelievable and quite endless supply of natural resources qualifies them as a world power. This is a country that cut Napoleon's army to pieces, bombed Germany back to the Stone Age and made Adolph Hitler commit suicide. 

Fast forward.

The Brits made a huge fuss about supplying a quite unknown missile called the Storm Shadow to Ukraine. Its a 30 year old missile, it is outdated and low tech. 

 

 

Then the Russians began blowing the Storm Shadows out of the sky. Here is some news:

 

Just in May 2023 the Russians shotdown 29 StormShadows. And they were able to recover seven of these missiles (like in the picture above). So it is not a case of 'theoretically' anymore. They already 'intercepted' 29 Storms in May 2023. 

These are very slow speed cruise missiles (Mach 0.90 only).  

The 30 year old Storm Shadow is not even remotely stealthy and truck mounted Russian radar can pick them off easily. The 30 year old Storm Shadow DOES NOT have any ability to hide behind terrain. 29 StormShadows were shot down in the month of May 2023 alone. They were really not good at playing hide and seek at all.  

It looks more like Britain is dumping these 30 year old, outdated, slow flying, low tech StormShadow missiles in Ukraine.

The missile has a limited range of 155 miles and is only useful against fixed, un-movable targets like bridges and large buildings. It cannot be used against towed artillery, mobile radar systems, mobile missile launchers or moving ships. 

The aim now is to cut Germany and Europe down to size. This means prolonging and losing the war in Ukraine. Tire everyone out and set the stage for permanent economic sanctions against Russia for years without end. No cheap Russian gas for Germany. Meaning British GDP growth will outpace German GDP growth.

The target is Germany. The sacrificial cow is Ukraine.
