Tomahawks can be launched from guided missile destroyers, Ohio-, Virginia-, and Los Angeles-class submarines, or the U.S. military’s new Typhon ground-based system.
Ukraine lacks these options, and the logistical, technical, and political challenges of obtaining them render deployment impossible.
Tomahawks are long-range subsonic cruise missiles that can be launched from ships, submarines or ground launchers. They have long-range, deep-strike capabilities, and can hit targets 1,250km-2,500km (777-1,553 miles) away

According to Defense Express, these systems could be installed on other wheeled vehicles more suitable for Ukraine’s operating environment.
This is a remarkable and welcomed change in U.S. policy vis-a-vis #Russia–#Ukraine.
The story of what changed Trump’s view on this still needs to be told. Was it new intel about Russia’s intentions? https://t.co/Cwpbc459IC— Nadav Pollak (@NadavPollak) October 1, 2025
