200 miles is long range now?

That doesn't even get you from Perth to Kalgoorlie, both in the same state..

I feel compelled to represent as a moderator of c/perth/westernaustralia over on the Aussie-Zone server.

There are tots-defs ten or twenty people here that will understand this hop, skip and a jump reference.

So, ah, yeah, sure showed you! 3! pffft!

That's me .. niche geography .. with only a few million people who might know what I'm talking about.

Well...

  • Perth is Western Australia
  • Calgary is in Alberta, Canada

Sounds pretty long range to me.

Surely Storm Shadow and the French variant can go further then that being aircraft launched?

And ffs Germany send then Tarus.

Long range would be when they could hit Moscow, a stretch calling these long range.

Yeah, that's how secret weapon deals are done.
