Ukraine has deployed its FP-7 tactical ballistic missile in combat for the first time, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said recently.
About FP-7 Missile:
The FP-7 Missile, nicknamed the Pelican, is a ground-launched tactical ballistic missile developed by Ukrainian defence company Fire Point.
It is designed for shorter-range strikes against targets such as logistics hubs, air-defence sites, and drone bases, rather than deep strikes far behind the frontline.
It is also being reworked to be used in air defense systems. It is a key part of Europe’s first common anti-ballistic system project, called Freyja.
Features:
It has a solid-fuel rocket motor.
It has a reported range of around 200 km
Its payload is 150 kg while its maximum flight duration is 250 seconds.
It has a circular error probability (CEP) of 14 meters.
