France To Sent 85 More SCALP-EG Missiles To Ukraine - Report

Illustrative Image

NATO countries continue military supplies to the war-torn Ukraine, despite the recent defeat of the Ukrainian counter offensive, which failed despite the multi billion aid from the West. French media reported that France is set to supply Ukraine with another large batch of SCALP-EG air-launched cruise missiles. It is also possible that the precious cargo was already delivered.

According to Le Figaro, France had previously sent 50 missiles, and now plans to send 85 SCALP-EGs more, that is, in total 135 missiles should be officially sent.

The first batch of 50 French SCALP-EG cruise missiles were sent to Kiev in 2023, when Macron decided to support Zelenskyi’s counter offensive and the advanced missiles were supposed to become another game changer on the battlefields. It was not reported exactly when the missiles were transferred, but last summer the first ones were already destroyed during Ukrainian attempts to hit targets in the Russian rear regions, in particular, in Crimea.

Paris and Kiev reportedly agreed to supply 85 missiles more, but their officials do not comment on the reports. There is no evidence of whether the missiles have been delivered or are just being prepared for shipment.

The French Scalp-EG is similar to the British Storm Shadow cruise missile. In fact, these are almost the same missiles, produced for different customers with slight differences.

The both missiles are capable of hitting targets at a distance of up to 560 km and reach a speed of 1000 km/h. However, only advanced missiles equipped with an additional fuel tank may reach the above-mentioned range. The other are only capable of hitting targets at a distance of 250 km. The latter include the export version of the missiles.

The Ukrainian Air Force use Su-24 bombers to launch SCALP-EG. They are also capable of carrying the British Storm Shadow, since the missile drop systems are similar.

According to various estimations, the French military has about 1,200 SCALP missiles. Probably, more of them were already sent to Ukraine than it was officially acknowledged by the French military leadership. Warehouses with these precious missiles are destroyed by Russian precision strikes on a regular basis. Some of them were intercepted during the failed attempts of the Ukrainian military to hit targets in the Russian rear areas, including over the Crimean peninsula. Since the Ukrainian military has more British Storm Shadow missiles in its disposal, they are also used more often during the attacks; and its difficult to distinguish them during the interception to officially confirm the numbers.

The reports about the French decision to supply SCALP-EG came immediately after Berlin refused to sent German Taurus missiles to Ukraine. Thus, the reports may be nothing but an attempt to show the European unity and readiness of European partners to support the Kiev regime. On the other hand, the delivery of several dozen more missiles is unlikely to entail any strategically important consequences.  The threat to the Russian facilities in the rear areas remain, but Russian air defense forces are successfully intercepting both SCALP-EG and British Storm Shadow missiles.

nato is being defeated in ukraine. the ukrainian forces are nato trained and armed and the biggest nato army in europe; total 2m recruited.

captain hohol

nato is going to, and is in fact already collapsing from within.

85 missiles @ about $2.5 million per missile is $215million us. that would feed a lot of families in france or any other country in the world for that matter.

french elites are scum after all, the same sort of trash as their anglo.masters.

Nahavar

half of them will be sold in the black market, the other 45 will be used for trying to kill civillians, specially children, maybe 3 or 4 are not destroyed by the russian countermesurements and reach people, killing one or two dozens. it won’t change anything on the battlefield and only create misery for innocent families. west politicians are inhuman monsters and must be punished for their crimes as soon as possible. rusia has the list. let see what they do with it.

don’t worry ukraine is still going to lose and become a brown filled postmodern leftist apocalypse that is indebted to the imf after russia has secured their territories.

the united states literally cannot afford to keep supplying ukraine and when finances dry up for ukraine, it’s over for them.

ukraine is already running out of people.

come the next french election, this rothchild gov’t is gone. le penn i s going to take macron to the cleaners. the only thing stopping that happening is the usual corruption by the shadow gov’t, aka the nwo cult.

germany could easily sell its taurus long-range cruise missiles to france so that france then can give them to ukraine. but because scholz is a pro-putinist marxist criminal in cahoots with lenin admirer and prime bastard klaus schwab, germany is holding back these game-changer missiles.

btw le pen is fake too – same as german afd. the father of le pen was a good guy and true france nationalist, but his daughter made deal with the jews already, kicked her own father out of the party, and agreed to just play the “right-wing france amazon” when in fact she’s just a poodle of the rothchild jwo-nwo. sad to say but that’s the truth.
