The Wunderwaffen the British are giving Ukraine could be knocked out by striking workers at the factory in Scotland that manufactures the Storm Shadow and Brimstone missiles. In what the British Daily Mirror calls a major labor dispute, 50 workers at the Defense Ministry’s facility went on a strike on Friday over low wages, and intend to declare a new strike on Monday.
This is the first such labor strike since the founding of the factory in 1943. Defense sources told the Daily Mirror that if the strike continues, the supply of the missiles could be impacted. The same factory supplies weapons systems to Britain’s nuclear deterrent submarines based at Faslane. The British Defense Ministry claims it has launched “contingency measures.”
