The first launch of the “Flamingo” missile, developed by the Ukrainian company Fire Point, has been shown online.
Footage of the launch was published by the Telegram channel “Nikolaevsky Vanek.” The video shows launches from ground-based systems and the missiles flying through the sky.
“Beautiful, isn’t it? As strange as it may sound, but whether we get to see footage of these missiles hitting their targets depends partly on us, but of course also on the Russians,” the channel noted.
It is not yet known where the launches took place or what targets the Ukrainian missiles were aimed at.
According to official specifications, the Flamingo has a range of about 3,000 kilometers, weighs around six tons, and carries a warhead weighing more than 1,150 kilograms. The missile can reach speeds of up to 950 kilometers per hour, and its guidance system combines GPS/GNSS with inertial navigation, resistant to electronic warfare.
