Highlights: Long-range missiles have become increasingly important in the war in Ukraine. Since Ukraine has been equipped with this type of weapon, attacks on targets behind the front line have increased. "This is a way of trying to move the battle and influence the enemy," says Lieutenant Colonel Joakim Paasikivi. The cruise missile has a range of at least 30 km and has been used several times – including against the Russian Black Sea Fleet off the annexed Crimean peninsula. But Russia also has access to long-range missile, with significantly longer ranges.
