Pylons from British Tornado aircraft are installed in Ukrainian Su-24 bombers, which allows them to carry Storm Shadow missiles

We have already written more than once that Ukraine uses Su-24 bombers to launch British Storm Shadow missiles.

Now more details about aircraft modifications have appeared on the Internet.

What is known

Ukrainian bombers were equipped with pylonsdecommissioned British Panavia Tornado aircraft. Analyst @Osinttechnical spoke about this. Judging by the photographs, parts of the Tornado pylon were installed on a stock Su-24 pylon. The Storm Shadow rocket is then hung onto this structure.

It has been brought to my attention that the weapons pylon adapter for the Ukrainian Su-24 Storm Shadow has been borrowed from an out of service RAF Tornado.

Yes, there are (parts of) RAF Tornadoes launching Storm Shadow over Ukraine. https://t.co/IQCSeB8NyM

By the way, Ukraine modified not only Su-24 bombers, but also Su-27 fighters. They are capable of carrying AGM-88 HARM anti-radar missiles.
