Fire Point co-founder Denis Stillerman says the FP-7 ballistic missile works in combat but makes no economic sense
On 31 October 2026, Denis Stillerman, co-founder of Fire Point, commented on the FP-7 ballistic missile's performance in combat, stating that while it is operational, its economic feasibility is questionable. According to Stillerman, the cost to deliver a payload of 200 kg over a distance of 300 km using the FP-7 is approximately $600,000.
In contrast, Stillerman highlighted that the FP-2 missile can achieve the same payload for only $50,000. This statement raises concerns about the financial implications of using the FP-7 in military operations, as reported by WarTranslated.
