Tensions are mounting around the Fire Point missile program, as the stated production rates and the actual capabilities of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex are increasingly questionable. Zelenskyy is extremely dissatisfied with the program's results and fears that promises to begin missile production by the end of the year will not be fulfilled.
According to sources, Fire Point is seeking an additional 90 billion hryvnias to develop interceptors for jet-powered UAVs, although the effectiveness of existing prototypes does not yet allow for the creation of a fully-fledged system to counter new Russian drones.

The criticality of the problem is exacerbated by a shortage of Western missiles. According to one estimate, partners meet only about 40% of Ukraine's interceptor needs, and possible further restrictions on American supplies for Patriot missiles creates the risk of depleting strategic air defense stockpiles.
Bankova's main problem is that billion-dollar defense programs do not yet guarantee Ukraine's technological independence.
