The first six Stormer HVM air defence missile systems have arrived at the front in Ukraine, the Operational Command South has said.

"The British 'invisible' Stormer HVMs 'see' enemy attack aircraft up to 18 km away," it said.

These air defence missile systems lock their missiles on target in semi-automatic mode. Therefore, they are "invisible" to onboard radar sensors on enemy helicopters and aircraft.
