Britain’s bunker-busting Storm Shadow rockets are a nightmare for enemies as they are capable of dodging air defences.
The £800,000 missiles – which were already being fired within Ukraine – use GPS to precisely hit targets, and can travel at 600mph.
It comes just days after Joe Biden gave his blessing for US-supplied rockets to be blasted onto Russian turf.
Western leaders had previously shunned Ukrainian leader Zelensky’s pleas to use long-range weapons to turn the war with Vladimir Putin.
Vlad previously warned before any such decision would drag Nato into direct conflict with Russia.
