Storm Shadow is a long range missile
The long-range Storm Shadow cruise missile was developed by the British Ministry of Defense in collaboration with France’s MBDA Missile Systems Company in 1997. It can attack up to a distance of 250 kilometers.
The weight of this 5.10 meter long missile is 1300 kg. The special thing is that it is capable of attacking in any kind of weather, day or night. This missile can secretly destroy enemy airbases, radar installations and communications.

NATO became the reason for Russia-Ukraine dispute
- After the breakup of the Soviet Union into 15 parts in 1991, NATO expanded rapidly, especially among Europe and the countries that were part of the Soviet Union.
- In 2004, three countries that were part of the Soviet Union – Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania – joined NATO, all three of these countries are border countries of Russia.
- European countries like Poland (1999), Romania (2004) and Bulgaria (2004) have also become members of NATO. All these countries are around Russia. Only Ukraine lies between them and Russia.
- Ukraine has been trying to join NATO for many years. It is because of his recent efforts that Russia has attacked Ukraine.
- Ukraine has more than 2200 km long border with Russia. Russia believes that if Ukraine joins NATO, NATO forces will reach the Russian border under the pretext of Ukraine.
- If Ukraine joins NATO, the distance of Russia’s capital Moscow from western countries will be only 640 kilometers. Presently this distance is about 1600 kilometers. Russia wants Ukraine to guarantee that it will never join NATO.
