Deadly new weapons system will thwart Putin attack on Britain
The Army is buying more mobile missile launchers to bolster Britain's air defences. The £120 million deal will get six Land Ceptor launchers which can each fire up to eight missiles that can targets the size of tennis balls at three times the speed of sound up to 60 miles away. It comes after recent war games showed Britain would be overwhelmed by a Russian missile and drone blitz. The MoD said the Land Ceptor deal would “bolster national security” and secure 140 jobs. It is part of a government plan to add two Sky Sabre air defence batteries to the seven already in service. Armed Forces Minister Luke Pollard said it would double the number of Sky Sabre batteries available to deploy abroad.
