Ukrainian Company Fire Point Shows Launch of New FP-7 Ballistic Missile
Ukrainian defense company Fire Point released footage showing the launch of its FP-7.X ballistic missile, which is expected to become the foundation for the future FREYJA anti-ballistic interceptor system. According to company representatives, the latest test included a fully controlled maneuvering flight of the missile. Earlier reports stated that the FP-7 platform is being developed both as a strike missile and as the basis for an air defense interceptor capable of engaging ballistic threats. Open-source data suggests the missile may have a range of up to 200 km, a warhead of around 150 kg, and speeds reaching approximately Mach 4.4.
Overnight strikes reportedly targeted five Russian cargo ships and tankers operating near Berdiansk, Mariupol, and other coastal waters under Russian occupation. According to preliminary reports, the vessels were involved in transporting fuel, military cargo, and exported Ukrainian grain through occupied ports. Details regarding the scale of damage and the condition of the ships remain limited, though multiple incidents were reported across the occupied coastal zone during the same night.
