The deadly 900lb bunker buster
RAF Tornado jets dropped eight ‘bunker buster’ Storm Shadow missiles on the chemical facility. The long-range cruise missiles can be launched up to 155 miles from the target, following pre-programmed GPS co-ordinates at 620mph before delivering the 900lb warhead. Their range means that none of the Tornados would have been required to cross into Syrian airspace to launch their devastating assault.
