UA Su-24 Fires Storm Shadow Missiles
Published 3 months ago
Footage reportedly shows an Su-24 Fencer from the Ukrainian Air Force's 7th Tactical Aviation Brigade dropping a set of Storm Shadow cruise missiles to strike far-away Russian targets.
It is likely that the two drops shown are from a single event recorded from two different aircraft. Something to note is the low level at which the missiles are released. The missiles themselves fly a relatively low nap-of-the-Earth type flight path. This helps to avoid enemy detection and interception.
