Very interesting

I thought they had carried storm Shadow but not yet launched one - they had better hurry up with seemingly fewer Tornados each month

If Typhoon's capability has at last embraced Storm Shadow then Tornado's days are certainly numbered, which is a shame as it will be missed by many of us.
