The Hrim-2, a single-stage, solid-fuel missile with a 500 kg warhead, was developed by the Pivdenne Design Bureau in Dnipro. This missile, a significant upgrade from the Tochka, has been in development for a decade, with progress accelerating after russia’s full-scale invasion.

In August, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed that, despite russian strikes on production facilities, the first Hrim-2 missiles had been successfully tested. With the Hrim-2, Ukraine gains the ability to strike critical targets in russia without requiring Western permission, expanding the range of strategic strikes available to the Ukrainian Defense Forces. Potential targets include russian airfields, military-industrial sites, and infrastructure facilities.
"It’s not that Ukraine shouldn’t strike targets deep inside russia. It should. And with the Hrim-2, it can. But these attacks, while empowering for the Ukrainians and embarrassing for the russians, won’t turn the tide of the war," the report stated.
