Fire Point

Fire Point is the Ukrainian defence consortium that manufactures the Flamingo cruise missile — Ukraine's domestically-produced long-range strike weapon with a reported range of 3,000km — along with a portfolio of drone systems. The company operates within Ukraine's Defence Industry Complex, the network of state and private enterprises that has expanded rapidly since the 2022 invasion to reduce dependency on Western arms supply. As of April 2026, Fire Point is under investigation by NABU, Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau, as reported by CEPA; the low deployment rate of nine rounds fired in six months raises questions about whether the bottleneck is production capacity, target selection, or supply chain integrity .

In June 2026, Fire Point broke ground on a solid-rocket-fuel production plant at Skrydstrup, Denmark — adjacent to a Danish F-35 air base — making it the first Ukrainian weapons manufacturing facility on NATO soil . The plant is positioned to supply fuel for the Flamingo programme and potentially for broader Ukrainian drone production, shortening the supply chain out of the warzone.

The Denmark plant is a strategically significant step in Ukraine's ambition to embed its defence industry into NATO infrastructure before any Ceasefire freezes the lines. Fire Point's dual presence — a domestic manufacture-and-deploy programme under a corruption investigation, and now a forward production node on allied soil — illustrates the complexity of Ukraine's defence-industrial modernisation at speed.
