hmm guess that's from a close in interception or self destructed missile.
and that's kind of unfortunate.

I really doubt that. Transformers are complex, expensive, specialised equipment, not something you just make a couple hundred of, nor does anyone have them sitting on shelves waiting for a customer to show up. Keep in mind, these weigh several hundred tons. While it isn't unthinkable that Germany may have dug up some disused ex-Soviet/DDR stuff in a warehouse somewhere (happened in Latvia and Lithuania after all), there is only a finite number of those.
What would Ukraink need to turn the tide of the war?
Тhe medium-range missiles would help a lot - when attacking in the south, it would be desirable to destroy the Crimean bridge and strike at the Russian military base, airfields and everything that makes sense to hit with missiles. imho, a successful operation in the south with the development of success and access to Crimea would force the russians to seek an exit from the war or cause the very internal crisis.
The south is in my opinion the key to ending the war. we will not necessarily end up with some kind of compromise and get something like our kosovo from parts of Donetsk and Luhansk oblast. but even if they give us leopards, without missile strikes it will be much tougher.

Well that happens. I'm curious if Belarus also used their S-300's to shoot down that stray missiles.
Also i noticed people claiming it was fake because no crater... I wonder why they missed the "Shot down" part. When the missile got shot.. especially with another S-300 it will break-up mid air producing smaller things which might be slower and hence impacted the ground the way it is without explosion and such.
Unlike in Poland where nothing was done to the wild 5V55 making it freely impact the ground at speed at least 3-4 times the speed of sound and Intact with its warhead.

Obscure video....
But considering how much shit and vodka the country has destroyed the Highmars, they probably shot down lasers from the Death Star))
That's why one have to resort to some research. You wont get any better than that for SAM's in operation.
I guess there are no real footage of radar screen for your S-300PT and PS either. so God knows whether your 5V55 does hit its intended target or going wild.
The Ukrainian military has no MIC to equip every single brigade with maneuver and support equipment that can destroy the Russian military. They are literally relying on Russia’s decayed military, industrial, and command structures to advance. However that advantage is slowly but surely being eroded since the Russians are learning and reforming via trial by fire as we speak (this is shown via the consolidations of many brigades into divisions, footage of Russian military factories reactivating, the sudden appearances of modern Russian military equipment like T-90M’s and Lancets, and etc). In addition, the West, particularly Western Europe as a whole, is struggling to reactivate their previously massive industrial production of military equipment. If Ukraine wants to truly “turn the tide of the war”, the West’s military production as a whole must completely outstrip that of Russia.
Germany was at its highest production rate near the end of WW2 and they still lost not just because they had less production of equipment than the Allies but because they had lost all their trained troops. You cannot operate high tech weapons properly with poor training. Japan started resorting to Kamikaze tactics partly because of that. The pilots coming out of training could barely keep an airplane flying straight.
