JUST IN: 🇩🇪🇷🇺 Germany Is Building A 2,000+ Km Missile Hammer, Berlin Wants To Strike Deep Into Russia Germany is preparing to spend nearly €12 billion on long range strike weapons as Berlin rebuilds a deep strike capability it has largely lacked for decades. Here’s what Germany is buying, and what it wants to develop: 🇩🇪 German made cruise missiles: From 2027, Berlin plans to acquire cheaper, mass-produced long-range cruise missiles to rapidly expand its stockpile. 🇺🇸 U.S. made Tomahawks: Germany is also moving toward purchasing American Tomahawk cruise missiles, giving the Bundeswehr a proven long range precision strike capability. 🇩🇪🇬🇧 German British future missile: Germany and the UK are developing a next generation long range strike weapon intended to eventually exceed 2,000 km in range. This is the system Berlin wants to develop jointly rather than simply buy off the shelf. 🇺🇦 Ukraine has demonstrated how long range weapons can hit airfields, command centers, ammunition depots and logistics hubs far behind the front lines. German military leaders have warned that Russia could potentially be capable of attacking NATO by the end of the decade. 🔥 Germany is pursuing domestic production, American Tomahawks and a future European 2,000+ km strike weapon, giving Berlin a much longer reach across Europe. The era of Germany having limited long range strike power may be coming to an end.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇺🇸 Russian Telegram channels report that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have begun using new AGM-188A Rusty Dagger cruise missiles, developed by the American company Zone 5 Technologies under the ERAM program. 🚀 According to the information, the missile has an operational range of approximately 930 kilometers and carries a 225-kilogram warhead. This represents a significant enhancement of Ukraine’s long-range strike capabilities. A cruise missile with nearly 1,000 km range and a substantial warhead allows Ukraine to reach deep into Russian territory, including key logistical and military targets. If confirmed, this new weapon system will further complicate Russia’s defensive efforts and increase pressure on its rear infrastructure. Video is generated by grok AI

BREAKING: The precision strikes on multiple civilian houses in Kuhestak, southern Iran, kill the ng five civilians in a wedding ceremony, were carried out using AGM-84H/K SLAM-ER cruise missiles launched by F/A-18E/F Super Hornets of the U.S. Navy. These strikes were precise, and the evidence indicates that the houses were deliberately targeted. This was not the result of a missile simply going off course: the target coordinates would have been programmed into the missiles as part of the strike mission conducted by aircraft operating from USS George H.W. Bush. Interestingly, I have also noticed a cluster of bots associated with a notorious contractor working for the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office—someone who was once my friend—spreading disinformation claiming that the destruction was caused by a misfired Iranian missile. First, they do not appear to be familiar with the geography and seemingly do not even know where Kuhestak is located. Second, wreckage identified as belonging to the cruise missiles used in the U.S. Navy strike has reportedly been recovered and filmed. They should stop spreading this disinformation. It does nothing except make Netanyahu’s office look bad. Stop it.

🇵🇱 Poland is weaponizing its domestic industry for a massive conflict by striking a deal to build thousands of cheap, long-range American Barracuda cruise missiles every year. This massive production run creates a nightmare scenario for Moscow, giving Warsaw the independent firepower to strike targets deep inside Russian territory. ✅ The giant of the Polish defense industry, the company Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa, plans to master the production of the Barracuda-500M cruise missile developed by the American company Anduril. 🔻 Signing the corresponding agreement with Anduril is a highly important event for the Polish military industry. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that this is "bad news for Mordor," implying Russia. It is planned to jointly produce several thousand Barracuda-500Ms annually. 🔻 The Barracuda-500M is a small-sized cruise missile designed for mass production and is distinguished by its low cost compared to counterparts. The warhead is 45 kg, but the flight range reaches 900 km when launched from an aircraft. The Barracuda-500M can also be launched from a ground launcher using a rocket booster, though in this case, the flight range drops to 700 km. The Poles plan to use Barracuda-500M cruise missiles from F-16 and F-35 fighter jets. This industrial leap completely alters Eastern Europe's military balance by removing the cost barrier of traditional cruise missiles. By turning F-16s and F-35s into ultra-long-range launchpads capable of reaching 900 km, Poland is surrounding "Mordor" with a cheap, un-interceptable swarm of precision weapons, making any potential Kremlin aggression a suicidal move.

‼️🇺🇲🇨🇳 For the first time, the U.S. Air Force has publicly announced the launch of a Long-Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) from a B-2 bomber. The test took place during recent exercises north of the Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean, with reports confirming that the target ship was successfully struck. The bomber utilized the LRASM anti-ship missile, which features a range of approximately 370 kilometers and a 450-kilogram warhead. As a reminder, this missile has already been integrated onto F/A-18E/F Super Hornet carrier-based fighters and B-1B Lancer bombers. Work is also underway to integrate it onto P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft, as well as F-15EX and F-35 fighters. The capability to deploy LRASMs from B-2 Spirit bombers could mark a highly significant development, as the range and low radar observability (stealth) of these aircraft unlock new operational possibilities for utilizing these anti-ship missiles. Furthermore, conducting this test specifically in the Pacific region can be interpreted as a very clear hint directed at China. Video is made Grok AI

The competition between strike systems and air defense/interceptor systems continues to evolve on both sides. In response to Russia’s growing use of jet-powered Geran-4 loitering munitions and Geran-5/Banderol cruise missiles, Ukraine has begun developing jet-powered interceptor drones. The aim is to address a class of faster aerial threats that can be difficult for conventional propeller-driven interceptors to engage. Ukraine has also used Bars jet-powered drones in at least one strike campaign against Moscow. Their numbers are still believed to be limited, with propeller-driven drones making up the majority of Ukraine’s long-range strike fleet. This highlights a broader issue for Russia: the need to develop and deploy compact interceptor drones before faster targets become more widespread. The challenge is not simply intercepting them, but doing so economically. Traditional air-defense systems and MANPADS can engage such targets, but using them against relatively inexpensive strike drones can be difficult to justify economically. One potentially relevant example comes from Iran. Several years ago, Iran developed and deployed the 358 missile, a specialized system intended to engage UAVs. It is a subsonic weapon with a reported speed of around 700 km/h, an infrared seeker, and a turbojet engine, with a claimed engagement range of up to 100 km. Its design reflects a different approach to countering relatively slow aerial targets, without relying on the speed and cost associated with conventional high-performance surface-to-air missiles. The missile has demonstrated its effectiveness, having shot down a number of U.S. and Israeli UAVs. This is not necessarily an argument for simply copying the 358. The more important point is anticipating what types of drones may be heading toward Russian cities in the future and developing an interceptor that is capable of engaging them while remaining cheaper than the strike systems it is designed to counter.

🇺🇦 Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, General Oleksandr Syrskyi, has approved the concept for the development of missile troops and artillery until 2030. 🔺 The document provides for the completion of work and the launch of mass serial production of domestically produced ballistic and cruise missiles. In combination with unmanned systems, this will make it possible to create a balanced long-range fire system capable of destroying targets at distances of up to 2,000 kilometers. This long-term concept is a clear strategic signal. Ukraine is systematically building its own high-precision, long-range strike capabilities. Achieving a 2,000 km range would allow Ukrainian forces to reach virtually any target in European Russia, fundamentally altering the balance of the war and reducing dependence on foreign partners for deep strikes.
