   Fire Point targets autumn 2026 completion for FP-9 ballistic missile

   Fire Point intends to complete the FP-9 long-range ballistic missile by autumn 2026. The weapon features a range of 850 km, which President Volodymyr Zelenskyy states puts Moscow within reach. While the FP-9 is in its final development stage, Ukraine has already deployed the FP-7 tactical ballistic missile in combat for the first time. Zelenskyy indicated that the arrival of the FP-9 will allow Ukrainian forces to scale strikes against Russian oil refineries to counter pre-winter infrastructure attacks.

   Why it matters

   Ukraine is accelerating domestic defense production to reduce reliance on foreign weaponry. The transition from the tactical FP-7 to the deep-strike FP-9 represents a significant expansion of Ukraine's internal strike capabilities.

   What is confirmed

   • The FP-9 ballistic missile has a range of 850 km.
   • President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated the FP-9 should be ready in autumn 2026.
   • Ukraine has deployed the FP-7 tactical ballistic missile in combat for the first time.

   Still unconfirmed

   • The FP-7 is currently undergoing a codification or certification process.

   What to watch next

   • Confirmation of FP-9 completion by the end of autumn 2026
   • Official disclosure of the targets hit during the first FP-7 strikes
   • Verification of the exact range of the FP-7 missile
