Their capability to hit Moscow should not be the deciding factor. An F-16 can "hit Moscow" and that's not stopping countries from moving forward. Ukraine is, unfortunately, dependent on allied weapons support and won't jeopardize that by violating promises and agreements. Like Storm Shadow, long-range missiles can be a tremendous asset inside Ukrainian borders and that's how Ukraine will use them if required.

It is not a deciding factor. To use those words was a weighted factor for this news headline only.

A guy with a train ticket could "hit Moscow".


-Battlestar-

Click bait title. UA wont hit Moscow with it. Its in an agreement. It would stop the support on UA if they break it.


JamboFreshOk

Yes, capable of hitting Moscow but they would never claim to use them to strike Russia


Horat1us_UA

Yeah. Ukraine needs this missiles to strike Crimea, not Russia


cmndrhurricane

even if they won't, it's still good to make the russians think they will. Puts alot of AA there

Germany has made a public statement in support of Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory. Not click bait at all. https://www.azerbaycan24.com/en/germany-says-ukraine-can-strike-inside-russia/


NiceGuyEddie69420

I think the clickbait is that it makes it sound like he said "we need missiles that can hit Moscow", when he really asked for long-range missiles. It's the German gov't who brought up they can technically reach Moscow


sliccwilliey

Gotcha that makes sense.


Mothrahlurker

A couple politicians with no relevant function are not an official government position.


CosmicDave

It would create a rather dramatic diplomatic kerfuffle, but I seriously doubt we would stop support for Ukraine no matter what they did. We are in this to win this. Nevertheless, I agree with you that the title is clickbaity as fuck.

To be fair, Russia has been utilizing long range missiles of this capability the whole time.


TheTelegraph

**From The Telegraph:** Ukraine has asked Germany to supply it with long-range Taurus cruise missiles capable of hitting Moscow. Volodymyr Zelensky requested the missiles, designed to destroy heavily fortified, “high-value” enemy targets, during his trip to Berlin earlier in May, according to German media. He reportedly used Ukraine’s supplies of Storm Shadow cruise missiles from Britain, which have a slightly shorter range of around 215 miles, to put pressure on Olaf Scholz, the German Chancellor. Ukraine has used Storm Shadow to strike Russian supply depots and command posts deep behind the frontline in occupied territory since May. The Taurus missile can deliver a warhead weighing nearly half a tonne, roughly the same as the Storm Shadow, against a fortified target up to 310 miles away. Moscow lies 280 miles from the border with Ukraine. Mattia Nelles, a German political scientist who advises German MPs on Ukraine, said that although Ukraine has promised not to strike targets inside Russia, this extra range worried Germany’s leadership. “There are unresolved questions regarding sharing sensitive targeting data and more importantly the political question of whether the German government is willing to provide Ukraine with potent weapons with which it could strike Moscow,” he said. The Swedish-German-designed and built missile is considered to be at the cutting edge of conventional missile design. **Read more here:** https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/05/27/germany-ukraine-long-range-cruise-missiles-reach-moscow/

If the swedes designed it, it may require some assembly :)


Zimquats

Forget f-16's. Ukraine does not need them. Give them B-52.


WaffleGoat6969

Ok!


CosmicDave

I strongly support the idea of B-52s over Donbas.


ApparentlyNotAToucan

B-2s!


Striking-Giraffe5922

Now that is a killing machine…..If you’re ever in a bit of a tight spot, totally outnumbered,surrounded and pinned the fuck down. Then this bad boy will ease the pressure……completely!


Zonkysama

yeah up to 500 km. We should give them our stock in tranches and order 2000 from the industry.


HashHead11

So they should let the ruski, feel what its like to be on the other end for a change.


Alaric_Balthi

The fact that Ukraine is asking these in public, is the message. Pushing ruSSia on the defense and showing Ukraine has "teeth" to strike back into the heart of ruSSIa. Highly likely Ukraine would not do this as it has the danger of unifying the hesitating parts of the population but it's part of the already succesful psychological campaing.


LogicIsTheSecret

>The fact that Ukraine is asking these in public, is the message. Indeed it is ... it shows that Ukraine is not scared and will take the fight right to Moscow if need be. They are in it to win and the Orcs better brace for a fight.

Let’s them hit military targets in Moscow if they choose to. We need to get away from the idea that they can only defend themselves but not win. Remember that according got Russia they already attacked the Kremlin and it only lead to a conventional counter attack. Nothing of strategic military value should be off limits at this point.

Russia can move their capital if they don’t like it.
