Overview
- Fire Point says output is ramping toward roughly 2,500 Flamingo missiles per year, with a goal of more than 200 per month by December.
- The missile is claimed to reach up to 3,000 kilometers and to carry a warhead of over one tonne, with a wingspan around six meters and a launch mass near 6,000 kilograms.
- Analysts report the design uses a Motor Sich engine typically found in L-39 trainer aircraft, allowing fuel capacity to support the advertised range.
- Officials say the system remains in testing, and Germany’s defense ministry projects Ukrainian long-range weapons from local production could begin entering service within weeks.
- Ukrainian reporting presents Flamingo as intended to strike refineries, drone factories, pipelines and airports deep inside Russia to pressure its economy.
