Details: The Flamingo carries a 1,150 kg warhead and has a flight range of 3,000 km, making it capable of striking targets deep in Russian territory that were previously out of reach. The missile is also designed to resist electronic warfare, likely using a secure GPS module with CRPA antennas.

The missile successfully underwent tests several months ago and has now entered mass production. The Flamingo has seen combat use and is said to have struck targets inside Russia.

The first photo of the Flamingo missile was released by Ukrainian photographer Yefrem Lukatskyi.

“Ukrainian-made over 3,000 km range Flamingo missiles, which were launched into serial production, are seen in a workshop of one of the country’s leading Fire Point defence company in an undisclosed location in Ukraine on Thursday 14 August 2025,” he wrote.

Visually, the missile resembles the FP-5 cruise missile unveiled in early 2025 by the Milanion Group. According to Defense Express, its specifications include a maximum warhead weight of up to 1,000 kg, a maximum range of 3,000 km, a speed of up to 900 km/h and navigation based on an inertial system and GPS.

 

Fire Point is also known for its FP-1 kamikaze drones.
