To be continued next time. The Ukrainian Flamingo hit a Russian ballistic missile factory

“Volgograd welcomes the seasonal migration of flamingos from Ukraine. To be continued next time,” Denys Štilerman, the chief designer of the Ukrainian FP-5 Flamingo cruise missile, announced on the X network when he shared the impact of his creations on the Russian city.

The attack on Saturday morning was confirmed by the Volgograd authorities on Telegram. “During the raid, the production facilities of one of the companies were damaged. We also know of ten injured people, their lives are not in danger. No damage to residential buildings was recorded.”

The Russian investigative channel Astra then published an analysis according to which Ukrainian Flamingo missiles hit the Titan-Barrikady industrial plant, which specializes in artillery and rocket technology.

Among other things, this company produces carriers and launchers for intercontinental ballistic missiles Jars, Sarmat and Topol-M and short-range ballistic missiles Iskander, the Unian agency recalled.
