Will shoot over 2000 km: in Europe will develop a new weapon of "deep high -precision stroke" - Reuters

To spread: the United Kingdom and Germany will jointly develop a new weapon of "deep high -precision strike". Countries explain the need to create a new weapon that Europe has the opportunity to protect itself "from any escalation" of the Russian-Ukrainian war. New weapons will have a greater range and accuracy than modern long -range missile systems such as Storm Shadow. This was told by Reuters on May 15, citing information from the British government.

It is noted that two major European countries deepen cooperation in the defense industry, which provided for this year's obligations to create new weapons when the United Kingdom and Germany have signed a bilateral defense pact. It is also reported that the head of the UK Ministry of Defense John Gili and his German colleague Boris Pistorius plan to announce a new project of a deep high -precision stroke during a meeting that will take place in Berlin.

Details about what these weapons will be in terms of characteristics are not disclosed. It is only known that the firing range of such weapons will reach more than 2000 kilometers (or 1242 miles), as well as the fact that new weapons will have more range and accuracy than modern long -range missile systems - for example, such as Storm Shadow, which had previously handed over to Ukraine.

Reuters notes that the development of the defense industry in Europe is also conditioned by the actions and statements of the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, who has made it clear to European leaders since his admission to their own security. The bilateral pact between countries also provides for an obligation to conduct NATO Eastern Eastern Flanging.
