The millennial woman building Ukraine's ballistic missile

Iryna Terekh, the 34-year-old CEO of Fire Point, one of Ukraine's largest drone makers, is designing a ballistic missile that could potentially hit Moscow. This is a significant development in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as Moscow has been a major target for Ukrainian retaliation since the full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Terekh's company, Fire Point, has traditionally focused on defense, but she welcomes the idea of playing a role in a wider Western security architecture. The missile is still in the testing phase, and it's unclear when or if it will be deployed. However, this development marks a notable shift for Ukraine, which has long been known as a major grain exporter, with Terekh herself having previously worked on designing patios and outdoor furniture.
