"a Storm Shadow strike needs to be "supported" by American AGM-88 HARM anti-radar missiles and ADM-160 MALD decoy drones. [...]
first, an unmanned MALD is launched as a "bait" – the russians activate their air defense equipment and thus expose their location to the enemy; then, a HARM anti-radar missile targets the detected anti-aircraft system; and once russian air defense is suppressed and the sky is safe, a Storm Shadow is launched at the intended target." https://i.imgur.com/VIK7z...
