Denys Shtilierman, chief designer at Fire Point, released footage of the Flamingo missile launch, hinting that this was the weapon used by the Ukrainian Defense Forces to carry out a successful strike on the Aviatek aircraft factory in the Russian city of Kirov.
Denys Shtilierman wrote about this on the social media platform X.
However, there has been no official confirmation of this information from the Ukrainian military command so far.
As a reminder, residents of Kirov, Russia, reported a missile attack by the Ukrainian Defense Forces. Following the attack, city residents observed thick black smoke rising into the sky above the industrial zone.
According to social media reports, the Aviatek plant-a facility belonging to the Russian aviation and defense complex-was hit.
The plant manufactures aviation equipment and other products for the Russian defense industry. In particular, the plant specializes in the production of anti-aircraft guided missiles, target missiles, ejection seats, and aviation systems.
