Ukraine recently unveiled a new cruise missile named Flamingo.
About Flamingo Missile:
The FP-5 “Flamingo” missile is a long-range cruise missile.
It was developed by Ukraine's Fire Point defense company.
Features:
With a claimed range of 3,000 kilometres, a 1,150-kilogram warhead, and a maximum takeoff weight of 6,000 kg, the Flamingo is among the world’s largest and longest-range ground-launched cruise-missile
It has a wingspan of about six meters.
This makes the Flamingo the first indigenously produced “heavy” missile system in Ukraine’s arsenal.
It employs a turbofan engine.
It has a speed of up to 900 km/h and navigation based on an inertial system and GPS.
The missile’s high terminal velocity, in combination with its heavy weight, means that the warhead penetrates deeper into the target before exploding, which significantly increases the destructive power.
The missile is also designed to be resistant to electronic warfare systems, likely using a secure GPS module with CRPA antennas.
