A SAM wouldn’t fly straight up like that. This was a ballistic missile launch. It also looks like it lacks control surfaces. The appearance is wrong for a SAM.
I’m sure there were SAMs in the area but not this one.

That missile looks like my grandfather said. He retired in 1969 but was with his B-52 wing on Guam in 1965 for the start of Arc Light bombing campaign. He said the air crews would report SAM attacks that looked like they were shooting telephone poles at them.

damn this is cool. who would have thought 20 years ago we would, as civilians, be able to see this type of footage so quickly
edit: war is not cool, just the technology and ability for us to see videos is.
