SS-21 Debris In Georgia, Revisited

Hey, remember how much fun (more) we had trying to determine which Russian missiles were fired into Georgia from pictures of debris, such as this rocket body laying on an unfortunate sedan?

Well, the new NASIC slickee (aka Ballistic and Cruise Missile Threat, 2009) reproduces this picture with the caption “Russian SS-21 Damage in Georgia Conflict.”

Congratulations, Sean O’Connor, you nailed it on the head at the time.
