Almaz-Antey reports |
Are you sure about this? A website I saw said that the Almaz-Antey report claims that it was indeed a 9M38M1 missile. They argue that this missile type is also out of production, and therefore they should not be sanctioned by Europe for producing the missile that downed MH17 (because they don't make it anymore). Also, the website says that Ukraine and Russia both still use 9M38M1 missiles.

The RT article goes on to claim that the missile had to be Ukrainian because Russia no longer uses 938M1 (and therefore could not give them to rebels), but Putin would be surprised to learn this:

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
