Fire Point has completed ground tests of the FP-7 ballistic missile with a range of up to 200 km and will test it in an attack on Russia in the near future.
Fire Point is building a solid rocket fuel plant in Denmark with a capacity of up to 4,100 rockets per year. The launch is scheduled for the end of 2027.
Fire Point plans to deliver the first FP-7. x by the end of 2026, and carry out the first interception of a Freyja ballistic target by the end of 2027. The interceptor will cost approximately $700,000.
Ukraine's Fire Point plans to launch solid rocket-fuel production in Denmark at the end of 2027. The plant, with an area of more than 120 thousand square meters, will initially supply Ukraine and later its European partners.
At minimum capacity, the Fire Point plant will be able to produce fuel for 800 missiles per year, but if necessary, it will be capable of servicing more than 4,000 missiles.
The plant will produce propellant for the FP-7, FP-7. x, and Flamingo missiles. The plant is being built in accordance with all the requirements of European legislation.
Zelenskyy said that Ukraine needs Patriot interceptor missiles every day. The Freyja anti-ballistic shield is undergoing integration and testing.
For the second time, Ukrainian manufacturers are taking part in DALO Industry Days and presenting technologies capable of responding to the challenges of modern warfare.
The Freyja antiballistic shield is being integrated with radars, a launcher, and a command center. Tests are conducted up to twice a week.
The cost of the Fire Point plant in Denmark increased due to the construction of a new facility. Its launch is scheduled by the end of 2027.
Fire Point plans to complete preparations for the FP-7’s combat use by the end of September. The FP-9 missile, with a range of 800–850 km, is expected to be launched by the end of the year.
Ukraine has stopped reporting the number of Russian missiles due to security measures. Kyiv needs more interceptors from allies, especially Patriots.
Ukraine is working on its own Freyja antiballistic project, which is managed by the defense company Fire Point. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the state’s key task is to protect the production facilities from Russian strikes.
The launch of the Freyja anti-ballistic program is scheduled for mid-2027. Fire Point denied fake reports claiming it was supposedly ready to “close the skies to ballistic missiles by the end of the month” and said that such manipulations discredit the work on the project.
Kamikaze drones of various classes are changing the military economy, in which the cost of the means is weighed against the value of the target. The cost of a UAV depends on its missions, range, warhead weight, resistance to electronic warfare, and a number of other indicators.
Ukrainian company Fire Point has begun integrating components from 13 European partners into the Freyja system. The first interception of a ballistic missile is planned by mid-2027.
Weapons without real testing make no sense, which is why Ukraine is currently testing weapons against future threats, believes Iryna Terekh.
Fire Point CEO Iryna Terekh stated that European bureaucracy poses a greater threat to Europe's defense than the Russians. She called for simplifying procedures for implementing joint projects, in particular the Freyja anti-ballistic shield.
Fire Point invests hundreds of millions of hryvnias of profits from serial drones and missiles into the development of ballistic missiles FP-7 and FP-9.
Fire Point company produces 100 long-range Flamingo missiles and thousands of drones every month. Its products are used in daily attacks on targets in the Russian rear.
The President of Ukraine stated a shortage of missiles for Patriot air defense systems due to the situation in the Middle East. He emphasized the need to accelerate the provision of air defense due to Russia's increase in ballistic missile production.
Fire Point chief designer Denys Shtilerman confirmed that the Flamingo missile struck the "Aviatek" plant in Kirov. The enterprise produces components for Tor air defense systems and Kh-101 missiles.
Ukraine and Europe must receive protection that matches potential threats.
Iryna Terekh emphasized the importance of daily repeated strikes on targets on the territory of the Russian Federation.
Ukraine has something to offer European partners, and the FREYJA project is not only about protecting Ukrainian skies but also a response to the threat from Russia to all of Europe.
The Ukrainian defense company unveiled the FP-7. x interceptor missile, which will serve as the basis for the FREYJA anti-ballistic system. President Zelenskyy will present this system at the meeting of the Anti-Ballistic Coalition in France.
President Zelenskyy stated that Ukrainian drones hit an oil refinery in Omsk. Strikes deep into the territory of the Russian Federation have become a new reality
Modern warfare is not only changes on the battlefield, but also a change in approaches to the development and implementation of the latest weapons.
The EU has initiated the creation of a European Defense Union, which plans to involve Ukraine. The discussion is no longer only about unmanned systems, but also about countering ballistic missiles
Iryna Terekh said that the main problem is countering electronic warfare means. She emphasized the need for autonomous guidance systems to overcome Russian air defense.
