  • President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukraine fired its homegrown FP-7 ballistic missile in combat on Thursday.
  • Ukrainian firm Fire Point's FP-7 has a reported 155-mile range and 440-pound payload; no target named.
  • Analysts say it is unlikely to change the war but could hit Russian launchers, saving Patriot interceptors.
  • Ukraine says the longer-range FP-9, designed to reach Moscow, will be ready later in 2026.
