Fire Point FP-2

Also known as
  • FP-2
  • Fire Point FP-2 tactical drone
  • FP-2 Front Strike
  • FP-2 front-strike UAV

Fire Point FP-2 is a Ukrainian front-strike one-way attack UAV derived from the FP-series airframe, trading the FP-1's deep-strike endurance for a heavier payload and shorter-range precision attack role against Russian frontline and occupied-territory targets.

FP-Series Tradeoff

Fire Point and Ukrainian reporting frame FP-2 as the front-strike branch of the FP-series UAV family. It uses a shared FP-series airframe concept but shifts the design balance toward payload and shorter response-range missions rather than the FP-1 deep-strike profile.

Baseline role

Front-strike attacks on static and non-static ground targets.

Official Fire Point product data lists FP-2 separately from FP-1 under the FP-1/FP-2 UAV systems page.

Launch concept

Rocket-assisted ground launch from stationary positions or truck-based launchers.

The shared FP-1/FP-2 system data gives an 18-minute launch readiness figure.

Upgrade path

Redesigned wing and fuel arrangements have been reported for 370 km / 200 kg and 700 km / 105 kg FP-2 configurations.

Public reports do not identify every operational batch or unit allocation.

Variants

Public reporting treats FP-2 as the front-strike member of Fire Point's FP-series UAV family, with payload and wing/fuel changes creating distinct mission configurations.

Its combat record extends from Abkhazia and the 1998 Eritrean-Ethiopian War to Angola, Tigray, and the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War, where operators used it for air superiority, air-to-air combat, and adapted strike missions that now include Western precision and anti-radiation munitions.

Army references describe it as a two-piece round with a high-fragmentation steel warhead and integral rocket motor, built to extend howitzer range to about 30 km and later treated as a legacy munition for replacement by XM1113. Conflict reporting also places M549A1 RAP in Ukrainian Bohdana howitzer combat use during the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War.
