Ukrainian defense company Fire Point has admitted that the 'Flamingo' missiles, which gained international attention, were primarily a political statement to scare Russians rather than a 'wonder weapon'. The company's CEO, Irina Terekh, stated that the missiles were never intended to be a superweapon, but rather a demonstration of Ukraine's ability to strike deep into Russian territory. The company also acknowledged that using ballistic missiles for strikes on Russian rear areas is economically unsustainable due to their high cost.
