On May 14, “Fire Point” co-owner and chief designer Denys Shtilerman announced the company’s joining of a coalition to combat ballistic threats and presented the all-European “Freya” project – a unified protected air and missile defense system designed to intercept ballistic missiles. It is expected that the system will be integrated with other air defense elements according to NATO’s “Link-16” standard.
On May 25, D. Shtilerman stated that upon successful completion of the project, by the end of the year, using a cheaper Ukrainian alternative to the “Patriot” missile defense system, it will be possible to intercept enemy ballistic missiles.
On June 10, D. Shtilerman told the “Financial Times” newspaper in an interview that recent tests of the “FP-7.X” missile were “very successful,” and under optimal conditions, serial production could begin as early as August 2026.
