Denys Shtilerman’s claims regarding the scale of Fire Point’s production have prompted serious concerns.
According to his words to Reuters, the company produces «hundreds» of long-range drones daily, each costing about 50 thousand euros.
This was reported by journalist YuriyNikolov.
Even a minimal calculation gives shocking figures: 200 drones per day — that’s 10 million euros in daily turnover and up to 3 billion euros per year. This is almost half of the entire Ukrainian drone market, which is estimated at approximately $6.3 billion.
According to current rules, profitability can reach up to 25%. That is, potential profit — about 750 million euros per year.
And here arises the key question: where are the taxes on such amounts and why doesn’t the state see this scale? If these figures are true — we’re talking about the formation of a new wartime oligarch. If not — we have outright manipulation of figures for international media and potential partners. Additional resonance is caused by mentions of connections of the «Flamingo» rocket manufacturer with figures from the so-called «Mindychgate».
In summary — either public lies, or a billion-dollar business operating outside the state’s due attention. Both options look equally toxic.
