Fire Point goes beyond the production of drones and rockets: this year the company launched two satellites, and by 2027 it plans to launch dozens more devices into orbit.
Fire Point goes beyond the production of drones and rockets: this year the company launched two satellites, and by 2027 it plans to launch dozens more devices into orbit.
This is reported by the Financial Times.
Denis Shtilerman, co-founder and chief designer of the company, said that the satellite program is part of a broader strategy aimed at reducing Ukraine's dependence on American and Western technology suppliers and creating its own strategic systems.
"The idea of our weapons is that we sell not only means of destruction and not only security, but independence in security."
Stillerman did not disclose the technical specifications of the satellites, but noted that they are designed to support broader defense needs, including communications, coordination and battlefield awareness, as Ukraine expands its operations using drones and missiles.
Fire Point notes that their satellite program is closely tied to the company's broader defense ecosystem, which integrates drones, missiles, and autonomous guidance systems into a single battlefield control network.
