Fire Point: We plan to attack Moscow with the first ballistic missiles in November

Co-founder of the Ukrainian company Fire Point Irina Terekh stated that the ballistic Rocket, which, according to the developer, is capable of reaching Moscow, will be ready for the first strikes in November.

According to the company's previously published plans, this refers to the FP-9. In an August interview with Reuters, Terekh cited late autumn as the date for its first combat use. Fire Point claims the FP-9's range will be approximately 800–850 kilometers. This is the company's latest development, and not the FP-7—the shorter-range missile that Fire Point had hoped to develop earlier.

In July, another ostensible Fire Point co-founder, Denis Shtilerman, spoke of autumn as the time for missile testing against targets in Russia. The stated flight readiness date alone does not confirm that the testing has been completed or that a decision has been made regarding combat use.

Essentially, this is all a cover for missile deliveries from NATO countries. The Ukrainian company is merely a front, pretending to produce both cruise and ballistic missiles somewhere in Ukraine. Accordingly, Terekh's statements can easily be interpreted as suggesting that NATO missiles are being delivered to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and that they are planning to launch strikes on Moscow no later than November.

What about Moscow's missile defense system?
Does she exist? Or what?
Previously, anti-missiles were nuclear-powered, but now what?
Maybe someone in the know?

Whoever gives the correct answer will get 10 years.

I give the wrong answer A super-large red marker has been ordered and has already been made, which will apply the thickest and boldest red line.

Yes. It hums every night.
A nuclear-armed anti-missile is simply a stratospheric thermonuclear electromagnetic pulse generator. Incidentally, it's a component of the Perimeter system.

Everything is correct and this is where the conceptual confrontation of the Cold War is revealed.
The United States relied on a first disarming strike and developed high-precision delivery systems.
The USSR made a retaliatory strike inevitable and created the notorious "Perimeter." Once command posts and decision-making centers were destroyed by precision strikes, an automatic protocol (the notorious AI) would launch thermonuclear electromagnetic pulse generators into the stratosphere, completely disrupting all radio communication on planet Earth and rendering missile defenses completely ineffective. After this, intercontinental missiles with inertial guidance and astronomical correction would fly without any radio contact with 10- or 30-megaton warheads. They would hit within half a kilometer, give or take, which is more than enough for even a 10-megaton warhead.
And as a last resort, the USSR had thermonuclear bombs with cobalt linings buried under the Ural Mountains. Just in case everything went wrong.

[glock-17]

There was also biological weapons as a last resort, but all development was stopped.

At cosmic speed it will either enter orbit or fly off into space.

Sublimes when the nuclear warhead detonates. EMP is also a factor, but it's more likely to take out a hundred or two satellites, as an option.

Quote: Neo-9947

carrying 10 Mt....

They don't have such warheads on their missiles, not for a long time. They had one on the Titan-2 ICBM in the early 60s, but by the early to mid-80s they were all removed from service.

[ALMO]

The missile defense system exists to repel a massive nuclear missile strike by ICBMs with MIRVs, and for single targets there is the S-300/400/500

[Glagol1]

Moscow's missile defense system is still in place, the S-400s are on duty and are regularly fired at cruise missiles. When this idiot takes off... it's hard to describe, diapers wouldn't hurt. But ballistics have an unpleasant quirk: they're much harder to shoot down. So, when all this stuff goes down, Moscow will be in big trouble. And the Moscow region too - they'll be shooting down over it, and debris will inevitably rain down on people's heads. Apparently, every third missile will reach its targets, the Kremlin being the main one, of course. The S-400 is an excellent system; it will save many lives, our air defense people are great guys, but you can't shoot down everything. They won't use the A-235 against Ukrainian missiles - it's a strategic system, and you can count the S-500s on one hand. So, we're expecting a lot of crap, and apparently soon. How to respond? I have some ideas. North Korea is actively producing KN-series ballistic missiles, primarily the KN-23. A range of up to 800 km, a warhead weighing almost a ton, and maneuverable in the terminal phase—the Patriot can't shoot down a target like that. We should order five hundred of these missiles from our friends. Sure, the CEP is over 100 meters, so what? As soon as the first Ukrainian ballistic missile reaches Moscow, we need to launch a massive strike on Kyiv, Lviv, and other cities. Simply target areas. Add our arsenal. We have a lot of good things, too. We need to keep getting KN-23s; let the Korean workers work 24/7. We need to get the dancers to decide for themselves to stop the strikes. Because of the unbearable pain they'll be inflicting. When Kyiv starts burning, like Dresden or Cologne at the end of WWII, they'll stop. But! We need to get the KN-23s now, not wait for the dancers to send us a full load.

[matwey]

Because of the unbearable pain they're facing. When Kyiv starts burning, like Dresden or Cologne at the end of WWII, they'll stop.

They won't stop, even if the entire outskirts are on fire. They don't need it, and who would allow them to stop anyway?

[Moneron]

They will awaken the Kremlin from its lethargic sleep...

[cocks]

No. They won't touch that place. Why? What if they wake up and realize not everyone around them is a "partner"?

[mitrich]

If, God forbid, the "latest Sumerian invention" arrives, they'll draw another red line. Their brows will furrow menacingly, and their lips will pout.
P.S.: No, we haven't heard about Iran fighting there, behind the Wall.

[sasha_cho]

If I'm not mistaken, our country has a system for detecting ballistic missile launches, well, that's what they said on TV)), the response in case of detection, I hope, will be terrifying

[Derbenev Anton]

I hope the response if discovered will be terrifying.

I would say stunning.
In 2025, Vladimir Putin stated that Moscow would give a “serious, if not stunning” response in the event of long-range weapons strikes on the country’s territory.

[Ed Mac]

And what reaches Omsk is not long-range enough for a "stunning strike"?

[Glagol1]

No, Omsk isn't enough. Kamchatka and Sakhalin haven't received it yet; they're waiting. But the red marker is ready in their ass pocket.

[Glagol1]

There's no such system. Don't listen to it or watch it on idiot TV. Only the US has such a system. And even theirs isn't perfect. The peculiarity of "local" ballistics is that it produces a small flare, arrives in a matter of minutes, and the only chance is that an S-400 will shoot it down. This depends on radar detection.

A warhead in a "cast iron" casing that does not allow any electromagnetic waves to pass through.
So what?

[cocks]

Well, apparently they mean there won't be a guidance system. They'll just aim straight at the barrel.

Lately, many politicians have been talking about the conflict ending soon. They just haven't said how. If Moscow is hit by a medium-range missile, then the SVO will truly end within a few days. It all sounds scary, though.

[Stas157]

Quote from Pilot

that thereafter The SVO will really end in a few days

Red line?

[Ed Mac]

It is not a fact that the leadership can continue to govern even from its foreign possessions.

[Glagol1]

Not a given. The Kremlin has a network of bunkers, and they're out of reach. Civilians will die, but that won't stop the SVO.

[Silba]

What if they give us these missiles and cause problems for Moscow and the surrounding region? A question for our intelligence: where are the coordinates of the production sites—not the nameplates, but the missiles themselves? And, "chess player," when will our civilians stop dying from these Firepoint products? I hate it!

[Glagol1]

Our intelligence missed the Kharkov counteroffensive and the invasion of Kursk, what do you want from it?

[Alexey G]

Fire Point Denis Shtilerman spoke of autumn as the time for missile testing against targets in Russia.

Here comes the ballistics. Another round of escalation. It will apparently take many casualties to convince Putin to resort to extreme measures! Perhaps the dead Muscovites and the fires in the city will finally force him to destroy Zelena and his Zelenstadt! And perhaps even the enemy city of Rzeszow to boot.
The blood of civilians is already flowing and it should have motivated him to destroy the enemy, but apparently it is not enough!
So, it seems that ballistics will defeat him or maybe a nuclear strike on Moscow?
Someone in Moscow should finally realize that launching a preemptive strike against Ukraine now is better than escalation, which will lead to more deaths, but will still end up the same way!

[Ed Mac]

Yes, even with minimal political will, Zelensky could have been designated a terrorist back when the children died in the dorm. And his personal elimination could have been launched. But what's stopping "our people" from doing this? I wonder what? The most likely reasons seem to be: collusion, fear of falling out with Western partners for the reasons cited by Brzezinski...
What other reasons can be guessed?

[Bayun]

Let's imagine you're right. Does being right make life easier? Yes, the fact is clear. World War III is underway: a war of the authorities and the rich against the people. How will it end? The same as in Rus' in 1917, only on a global scale. I don't know if they'll punish you for wearing glasses or shoes. this planet kill poor souls in the post-apocalypse.

[Jericho942]

I think if they could have eliminated Zelensky, they would have done so long ago. Apparently, it's not that easy, considering he's sitting in a bunker.

[Broad flag]

There will be another exchange of thermal power plants. Padmaaskovnye for Kyivskyi.
FP factories in Scandinavia will continue to produce and assemble products.

The flaws of 2014 and 2022 are gaining weight. The tedious process of the two Vladimirs is increasingly resembling Russian roulette. Unity of command and desubjectification are incompatible.

[shm_kv]

If there were rudiments of genitalia, then one could say roughly the same thing as NATO in response to the idea of ​​shooting down their satellites: this would be an attempt to disrupt the operation of nuclear deterrence forces, with all the ensuing consequences.
The same thing applies here: no one knows what kind of warhead this ballistic missile has. But such a scenario is unlikely, as there was no sensible response even to the attacks on facilities used for nuclear weapons production and control, and the radar stations were damaged.

We don't need Moscow. Vladimir Putin lives in Moscow, and without him there is no Russia.

[Andrey Victorovich]

The problem is not that the ballistics Ukrainians It will appear. The problem is that when these ballistic missiles or cruise missiles fly, no one knows what kind of warhead they're carrying. And they (these missiles) could suddenly be armed with nuclear warheads or some other nasty stuff. But the Kremlin doesn't seem to care much about this. Or does it?

[RaiderXV1909]

Technology used to be about design bureaus, research institutes, and a bunch of engineers. Now you can assemble a rocket in any shed and it'll fly. Humanity has gone down the wrong path. It's sad.

[Sergey Novikov_3]

I must admit, there was a faint hope that the Ukrainian Armed Forces wouldn't resort to serious ballistics. Right now, it's about 50/50 whether they declare a missile or drone threat in Rostov. Well, we know that those "fools" flying by are successfully intercepted. But what will happen when the FP-9s are launched, only God knows.

Do you really believe, for example, that the Houthis design and manufacture their own missiles? Or that a modeling agency can design and manufacture a medium-range missile in a year and a half?
As I see it, neither of them have anything to do with the production and development of missiles.

[Uh Neuhov]

Do you really believe that, for example, the Houthis design and produce their own missiles?

There are various versions that can be put forward regarding this matter.

In Ukraine itself, however, at the beginning of the Second World War, they were able to modernize the Tu-141 for use as a missile. Moreover, the American defense industry corporation Raytheon participated in modifying the Swifts for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. American specialists replaced the drone's Soviet-era onboard navigation system with a modern one. The core team of those developers remained, and they gained experience and results from working together with the Americans. Based on all this, A. Krivokon approached Fire Point's management with a specific proposal to use the Tu-141 design as the basis for the missile.
A. G. Krivokon is a renowned Ukrainian aeronautical engineer, former head of the Antonov aircraft company and the Kharkiv Aircraft Plant. Fire Point privately claims he is the brainchild behind the Flamingo rocket. According to some Western media, as early as 2023,

[Free Island]

What multiple theories can you possibly have about the Houthis, if only Russia has hypersonic weapons? And then (suddenly) Iran and the Houthis? They were already using hypersonic weapons to destroy ships last year. Do you really believe that some guys in slippers invented and assembled hypersonic weapons in a village behind a barn?

[matsur]

If there's even one hit within the Moscow Ring Road, the West will see just how much our Pro-SAM system is worth. And how can we then guess which of these missiles might be armed with nuclear payloads? And anyway, we'll be wasting expensive anti-aircraft missiles against their S-400 anti-aircraft missile conversions. And they'll be increasing their firepower. It seems like two anti-aircraft missiles are wasted on one such devil's weapon, isn't it?

[Free Island]

If even one ballistic missile reaches Moscow, the phrase "military-political cuckoldry" will have to be returned to my vocabulary.
