Analyst Note:
This image shows remnants of two different rocket motors from AGM-114 series Hellfire missiles. While it cannot be determined by these entries alone, images of the damage from the strike associated with this image, gathered by Mwatana, indicate that both of these AGM-114 missiles were the kinetic AGM-114R9X variant.

Analyst Note:
This image shows an RGM-109-series Tomahawk Land Attack Missile (TLAM) being launched from the USS Curtis Wilbur (DDG 54), an Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer. The RGM-/UGM-109 TLAM series are surface-to-surface cruise missiles fired from various platforms. The ‘R’ and ‘U’ in RGM and UGM, respectively, denote the intended launch platform, with ‘R’ denoting surface platforms, such as ships, and ‘U’ denoting subsurface platforms, such as submarines.

Analyst Note:
This image shows the section just forward of the Tamir missile’s forward fins and appears to incorporate the base of the active radar seeker (open end) and the laser proximity sensor part of the warhead fuzing system (mirrors/glass & opening in the casing). While the Tamir has been reported to physically impact some targets, the proximity fuze is designed to closely pass by the target, then detonate the high explosive fragmentation warhead thereby destroying the target. ‘Tamir’ is a Hebrew acronym for Til Meyaret, or ‘interceptor missile’.
