Flamingo, a new #ukraine cruise missile is being now manufactured at scale.
Range 3000km
Warhead 1100kg
Likely not a bunker buster, but good enough to gift putin's orcs presents.

Ukraine did much of rocketry design and construction when it was occupied by the russians.

Also, it's not that hard to build one.
There was a New Zealander in the 1990s who was blogging about his progress building one in his garage...until he was asked to "stop it please" by his country secret police.
