    You are comparing it to an AIM-9, NASAM uses AIM-120. But the diameter compared to those pictures still is an issue.

    More importantly: There’s still the problem with blast power. This incident destroyed (not even completely) a relatively small side building of the hospital. If it was a regular Kh-101 the damage would be significantly larger. The updated one even more so (double the warhead, reducing range).
