Ukraine has conducted test launches of a domestically developed ballistic missile of an undisclosed type, according to statements by former Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov and the Militarnyi defense news outlet.

According to Fedorov, the project was developed under the responsibility of the Ministry of Defense … He did not disclose the name of the missile system.
…
In March, Ukraine’s Defense Procurement Agency signed long-term contracts with domestic manufacturers of cruise and ballistic missiles. Deliveries under those agreements are expected to begin, at least in part, later this year.

Would love to know what the truth is - I’m skeptical on the popularity angle - Zelenskyy has made it clear he has no intention or desire to stay on after the war (can you blame him ?) so why would he care who else is popular ?
