    Exclamation I need some quick help on Russian Rockets

    Dear Members, I could use your extensive knowledge and immediate assistance with the following:

    Russian rocket, nose down in the dirt, approx. 7 meters long, with the following markings:

    9 M 79 M (ending with a 5-pointed star)

    Remaining symbols/numerics:
    79 C? 866 793 (ending with a five-pointed star with a numeric 4 in the center)

    While we know it's a SS21 SCARAB, we don't know from the markings if it is an A or B version, and more importantly, what fuse is on the nose.

    Is it much like those found in Israel and Northern Africa "unguided" or worse, proximity fused ?

    Destruction procedures and safe distance tables very much welcomed.

    If you don't want to post, please PM me. Suspense is tomorrow AM my time (Zulu plus 4).

    Thanks in advance !

    EDIT: This is no joke, please do not link me to Wiki. Anyone have a Janes account ?
