Fire Point, the Ukrainian maker of the 3,000km Flamingo cruise missile, began building a solid-rocket-fuel plant at Skrydstrup, Denmark in early June, beside a Danish F-35 air base. Kyiv Post and Defence Express report it as the first Ukrainian weapons production on NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) soil1. NATO is the 32-member collective defence alliance founded in 1949; until now its members supplied Ukraine, not the other way round.
That reverses the pipeline this topic has tracked for months. Western kit, money and combat data flowed into Ukraine; now Ukraine exports the manufacturing doctrine back out. President Volodymyr Zelensky proposed exactly this at the B9 and Nordic summit in mid-May, bilateral drone deals struck independent of US export approvals. Skrydstrup executes that policy in concrete and steel.
Ukraine built roughly 4 million drones in 2025, more than every NATO member combined, and targets 7 million in 20262. The plant on Danish soil also hands Russia a cleaner targeting argument than a hidden production line ever did. Russia's own drone and aircraft output is climbing fast, a parallel surge this briefing tracks separately.
