The air-launched Storm Shadow missile is being used to great effect in Ukraine, the UK said. The UK-supplied weapon is performing "almost without fault," Defence Minister Ben Wallace said. Russia has accused Ukraine of striking a bridge linking Kherson to Crimea with the weapon.

Both Storm Shadow and the french supplied SCALP have a proven track record so this is not exactly a surprise, but still great to hear that they even work when launched from a SU-24.
