Back in 2022, developing homegrown weapons capable of devastating enemy strikes seemed impossible. Today — it’s reality.
The FP9 ballistic missile is positioned as a key element of Ukraine’s new deep-strike capabilities, complementing drones and cruise missiles while making the war far more dangerous for Russia. Per stated specs, the missile boasts a range of about 800–855 km, high speed, and a powerful warhead.
FP9’s emergence marks a logical evolution of Ukraine’s strike arsenal — from improvised drones to cruise and now ballistic missiles. The mere threat of Ukrainian missile use forces Russia to stretch its air defenses and resources across its territory, creating new vulnerabilities.
