Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on October 1, 2026, that Ukraine has deployed its domestically developed FP-7 tactical ballistic missile in combat for the first time against Russian targets. The missile, manufactured by Fire Point, is a short-range weapon with a reported range of approximately 200 kilometers (some sources cite up to 250 km), designed as a ballistic interceptor within the European missile defense program Freyja. Reports indicate the missile carries a warhead of 150-200 kilograms and has a circular error probability of 14 meters. Zelenskyy did not specify the exact location or target of the strike, though some reports claim strikes hit targets in the Black Sea, a drone hub in Russia's Oryol region, an oil facility in the Samara region, and a supply depot in the Bryansk region. The claims have not been independently verified. Zelenskyy indicated that production of the missile would continue following its successful combat debut.
