Background

The FP-6 is a Ukrainian long-range one-way attack drone. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy named it in October 2026, saying the FP-6 hit Russia's Omsk refinery on 8 October, about 2,500 km from the Ukrainian border. He described it as a modified FP-1.

The FP-1 is made by the Ukrainian defence company Fire Point, which said on 8 October that modernised FP-1s carried out the Omsk strike. Ukraine had first claimed a strike on Omsk, Russia's largest refinery, on 6 July 2026. No specification for the FP-6 itself has been published.

The drone matters because of where it reaches. Strikes at this distance put refineries east of the Volga, and in Omsk's case beyond the Urals, inside Ukraine's range. Those were plants geography once protected.
