It would seem that the quieter than usual missile launches was simply Russia saving it's missile arsenal up for a much larger attack?

I bet Russia comes for the UK in retaliation of aiding them in the fight.
Russia is stepping up their fire by saving up and hitting hard.
This isn’t going to end well. If someone doesn’t kill Putin first he will unleash everything he has in power in one big mother load of what’s left.
I think he’s stating to get ****** off with other countries helping Ukraine.
He wants the land and won’t stop until it’s his. No matter what it takes.

Let’s hope they shoot most of them down.
The smarter thing to do would be to save them for the upcoming Ukraine counter attack but you know keep on firing them at apartment blocks and hospitals like the terrorist state they now are

Ukraine need longer range missiles, though I would tend to say they should only be used within the borders of Ukraine (inc. Crimea) and not casually get fired off into Moscow, as tempting as it may be.
If they had these missiles they could hurt the Russian logistics even further behind the lines, which would be a big win.

A good series of videos. I just can't help seeing Lister from Red Dwarf when I look at him though.

If these get launched I tell you now he’s coming for the UK with everything he’s got. These weapons will cause major damage!
Once the first one hits in the radius of the UK then that’s it NATO will be involved and it’s full out WW3.

Russia can barely fight Ukraine let alone WW3 with NATO, they would have to be prepared to send everyone, including themselves, into oblivion.

Are people simply ignoring the fact that Ukraine hasn't got any way of launching Storm Shadow?
There is a procurement/tender document I'll try and find - they are not giving Ukraine Storm Shadow - a few countries lead by the UK are putting out a contract for missiles with a 100-300km range for Ukraine amongst other things.

EDIT2: Ah I see it has been linked a few posts back.

Doesn’t look that way at the moment, Ukraines been bombed to hell right now, the report is 17x TU95s are in route.
165 missiles or so about to hit.

Apparently they've flown pretty much everything which was sitting around at Engels hmm. If so I really hope Ukraine is given the capabilities to strike in retaliation at sites and equipment used in attacks against them.
Doesn't mean they are going to be used though.

Su 95 is a small, regional, passenger jet plane. Not a missile delivery system.
Typo/translation error - it is Tu-95s and other stuff.
EDIT: Too early to say what they are doing with them though might be an exercise or rotation, etc. or maybe redeploying them if they've got wind of a potential Ukrainian/sabotage threat, etc.

I don't think even Russia would outfit a civilian airliner to carry cruise missiles. Are you sure you're not getting it confused with the Tu-95?
The US has a setup with civilian airliners and palletised cruise missiles
But yeah Russian combat aircraft rarely show on flight radar especially the bombers - only government flights and transports.
