Ukraine’s Deep Strike Power Multiplies TwelvefoldStorm Shadows Replaced

Ukraine’s ability to strike deep into Russian territory has become a decisive factor in the ongoing war, but stockpiles of long-range precision missiles have been critically low. Western allies have faced limitations in replenishing these weapons, constraining Ukraine’s operational reach. The introduction of a new, mass-producible missile system dramatically shifts the balance, expanding the capacity to hit strategic targets far behind enemy lines. By targeting command posts, air defenses, logistical hubs, and energy infrastructure, Ukraine can degrade Russian operational tempo while protecting its own forces. This new capability not only restores what was lost but multiplies Ukraine’s long-range strike potential, forcing Moscow to rethink defensive priorities across multiple fronts. In effect, the combination of quantity, precision, and flexibility positions Ukraine to dictate the tempo of high-value strikes and further destabilize Russian supply and command networks.
