Foreign embassies submitted inquiries to Fire Point containing classified documents that the diplomatic missions had received from the Anti-Corruption Action Center (AntAC). This was stated by Denys Shtilerman, co-founder of the Ukrainian company Fire Point and designer of the "Flamingo" missile, during a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada Temporary Investigative Commission on possible violations of legislation in the defense sector, anti-corruption laws, and the observance of rights and freedoms during martial law, UNN reports.
They (the embassies – ed.) always approached us with inquiries—inquiries regarding documentation, inquiries regarding pricing. We did not understand where these inquiries were coming from. Later, we realized that letters were being sent with our design documentation attached, and the content of these letters (was to the effect – ed.) that we were selling our aircraft, which are the cheapest in their class, with a 200% markup...
According to him, in letters to foreign embassies, the AntAC claimed that Fire Point was inflating prices for FP-1 products.
Shtilerman specified that the activists' letters to the embassies contained the company's flight documentation manual, certain blueprints, and cost estimates.
He noted that one of the Fire Point employees saw the AntAC letter sent to foreign embassies, which contained classified design documentation.
Shtilerman added that the company has filed a corresponding criminal complaint with the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU).
As a reminder
Earlier, Shtilerman released an official response from the NABU regarding the company's status in criminal proceedings concerning the procurement of unmanned systems. The Bureau stated that no notices of suspicion were served to the heads or founders of Fire Point, and the company itself does not have the status of a legal entity against which criminal law measures can be applied.
