This month's supplement covers various worldwide air-to-surface cruise/strike missile systems and includes our strike missile analysis. Russia made little use of precision-guided munitions (PGMs) during its brief war with Georgia. The Russian Air Force did not mount any significant air defense suppression campaign, which resulted in its aircraft being vulnerable to Georgian air defense units throughout the fighting.rnA new report added to this supplement is Brimstone. The Brimstone report covers the British air-to-surface missile, which is now in service. In addition, this report covers the British pursuit of a new loitering munition. Fireshadow is a candidate to meet this requirement. However, economic problems in the United Kingdom could delay this procurement contract.
