In the UK, the possibility of developing missiles with a range
of up to 3.2 thousand kilometers was discussed,
Azernews reports.
According to the information, London is preparing to implement
this project together with Berlin. So, during a visit to Germany on
July 24, British Defense Minister John Healy discussed with his
colleague Boris Pistorius the development of long-range missiles to
destroy Russia's nuclear potential.
At the same time, John Healy and Boris Pistorius signed a
declaration on military cooperation between London and Berlin. This
document is intended to strengthen cooperation between the parties
in the field of preparation, production and supply of weapons and
ammunition.
These missiles, which will be developed by London and Berlin,
may in the future replace cruise missiles that the United States
will deploy in Germany. On July 10, the White House press service
announced that starting in 2026, the United States will begin
deploying new missiles with a longer range in Germany than weapons
in Europe.
According to experts, apart from the Trident II ballistic
missiles carried on Vanguard-class submarines, the longest-range
missile currently in service with the British armed forces are
Storm Shadow missiles capable of hitting targets at a distance of
about 250 kilometers.
