What will give Ukraine the edge? Fiber-optic drones or long-range cruise missiles? | DW News

Ukraine has announced a potential major breakthrough in its weapons production program -- testing its own long-range cruise missile. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says the missile can travel 3-thousand kilometers. Moscow lies less than 500 kilometres from the Ukrainian border. The weapon is known as 'Flamingo' because a factory error tinted prototypes pink. Zelenskyy says production could start in February.
