If we look at screenshots of your video:
You can clearly see a turbofan on the rear end on the bottom. The NASAMS does not have this. You can see two long wings, which the Kh-101 has, and the stubby nose.
For reference, here is a Kh101 missile:

In case there is still some confusion that this missile is somehow not a Russian Kh-101:
Russia systemically targeted hospitals in Syria. The UN provided them GPS data of hospitals to designate them as safe zones and they used the info to deliberately target them.
Dear Luna84, PFO, thanks
I think the approach they'll follow is disappear after a few more posts then return again after a month with fresh claims. It's pretty predictable.
Is that a NATO mouse pointer or a Russian one? lol.
After which, he should be placed the equivalent of one of America's super-max institutions. With the proviso that one wall of the cell be a large TV screen, showing on a continuous loop all of the destruction he was responsible for, while listening to all of Solovyov's, Simonyans and Medvedev's TV rants. A full-size pic of Prigozhin (or maybe better still, full size statue?? complete with sledgehammer) adorning another wall of the cell. Actually, I'd settle for some kind of coup, where Putin was deposed and incarcerated in the Black Dolphin prison that would be OK too. but creme de la creme would have to be Putin captured by Ukraine…
Well, if that's what constitutes proof for you, then you must live in a world of huge windows, where everyone can see you coming a mile off.
Yep, that's how the readers from the Book Of Tankie operate. Throw wild accusations around, deny deny deny with a neck harder than a jockey's bollocks, try to pass off Russian screwups/atrocities* as Ukraine/NATO/BioNazis, avoid direct questions that their catechism doesn't cover, then skulk away, to return around a month later to throw more wild and different accusations, while completely forgetting what wild accusations went before. Rinse, repeat.
That's their general MO, a timeline usually only interrupted when a major Russian screwup kicks off and they're called to action, though in such cases it can take time for them to update the book. EG the Coup that never happened.
What we've not seen much of here is the other goto for the above lot; shouting about Russophobia.
*imho this was more of a screwup. It's pretty clear at this stage Russian targeting is remarkably crap at any sort of long range. It's one reason why they go for bigger payloads, in the hope of hitting something. Western systems tend to have smaller payloads because they also tend to be far more precise so don't need the blast more and hope you hit a target. A WW2 equivalent might be the precision and smaller payload of a dive bombing Stuka compared to dropping the full bomb bay of a stack of B-17's. The US was consistently hitting targets much more precisely in the first Gulf War than Russia can seem to manage 30 years later.
BioNazis
Thanks, needed a new band name
And here's the inspiration for a song or two.
Russians are a different people to the rest of the world - says the russian article. And don't want to live long. They want to die like sheep.
This study was paid for by the Russian Happiness Project. The poorer you are. The younger you want to die.
Is it true that Twitter has taken down Bellingcat's posts about the children's hospital?
Tell us @Luna84 , do you believe if you lie often enough and brazenly enough it somehow becomes true?
Appears to be back up, honestly suspect it's due to terrible automation.
If Luna considers Ukraine a corrupt nation, what do they consider Russia to be?
Their handlers I'd guess
Home! 😂
I'm just assuming @Luna84 is posting scutter here from some basement of a barracks in Russia. No doubt they'll eventually be sent to the meat-grinder at the front-line for the death all Russian soldiers deserve.
i dont know…sounds a bit kind of relaxing to me,floating about like all cosy…id wish that him and all his russian mafia mates had their arses and bollix infested with the fleas of a thousand camels and their arms grew too short to scratch the itch…
Interesting
home, I'd guess.
Not if they can convince some Irish people of russian superiority!
I see Orban is off to visit Trump (not the current US president) next. Surprised he's not stopping in North Korea on the way.
you may not like him but a shrewd more getting brownie points with the almost shoo-in president at this point instead of wasting time with the lame duck, doddering frail old man on the way out.
Oh, 1000 camels would be massive over kill….the number of fleas occupying one camel would be more than enough...and one camel's worth of fleas would prolong the agony indefinitely!!
Didn't say anything about liking the guy but that's the president of the EU visiting the current US President's political opponent after meeting other heads of state. Why did he visit Putin's or Xi's electoral "opponents"? 😂
Possibly, but he is posting on several topics here on boards. This is his idea amusement winding people up about Ukraine. He's a sick bastard supporting another other extremely sick bastard, Vladimir Putin. The best thing to do with him is ignore him.
They don't have any remaining 'opponents' to visit - domestically at least. 😉
well…ok…maybe only one camels fleas per russian mafia member so…wouldnt want them to think we were over-kill or anything
There's some real butthurt posters online elsewhere about the new aid packages going to Ukraine.
I think they've been brought on a journey so far by russian and maga propaganda that putin has become their messiah of all what they believe how the world should be run in their imagination. If there's anything or inadequacies in their lives then it's putin is the answer. The russian bots of course have been fostering and cultivating this support online.
It always goes back to Hitler. But I firmly believe the same posters if Hitler was here today and had his online propaganda army at work the same posters would be supporting the man himself and decrying any action against his work.
It's a very sad existence to be thinking putin is a great man with our modern values in how he has been subjegating his own population to death by meat grinder, death by prison for not agreeing with the regime, a brain drain on the country with all the university professors and scientists leaving Dodge, subjegation of gay people, rights being removed from women. You'd be a bit broken inside to be thinking this is something that is welcome.
why Trump? I reckon Putin SUGGESTED it. ORBAN has thrown PROTOCOL out the window and shows NO respect for the US as a democratic nation. As an official visit he should be meeting rather current president at least first. It beggars belief
