"We didn't want to disclose this publicly, but it seems like now is the time. "The Flamingo is a long-range cruise missile that can carry a warhead weighing 1,150 kilograms and fly 3,000 kilometres over Russia," said Iryna Terekh, CEO and CTO of Fire Point.
According to her, it took less than nine months to develop it.
"I won't tell you its exact speed, but I can tell you that it is faster than all the other missiles we have now. It is completely Ukrainian-made," Terekh added.
She added that the Flamingo is currently being mass-produced, with plans to produce about 200 units per month.
Missile technology expert Hoffmann notes that 3-5 thousand of these missiles could destroy more than 25% of Russia's economic output.
Earlier, it was reported that Ukraine presented a long-range Flamingo missile with a range of 3,000 km.
President Zelenskyy said that in late 2025 or early 2026, Ukraine would start mass production of the Flamingo missile.
