Storm Shadow

Storm Shadow / SCALP Missile Storm Shadow is a long-range, air-launched cruise missile jointly developed by the United Kingdom and France (known as SCALP in France). Designed for stealth and precision strikes in all weather conditions, it targets high-value stationary assets such as airbases, radar stations, and communication centers. The missile is used by several nations, including India, Egypt, Italy, Greece, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE. In India, the SCALP missile is integrated with the Rafale fighter jets of the Indian Air Force. Recently, Ukraine used UK-supplied Storm Shadow missiles to strike a Russian chemical plant in Bryansk, breaching Moscow’s air defenses
