Video Posted by Ukrainian Government Shows Russian Surface-to-Air Missile Carrier Hightailing It Back to Russia... Missing One Missile

It is being carried back to Russia on a flatbed trailer. The missile carrier itself is a tracked vehicle.

The Washington Post notes, maybe dryly:

Tracked vehicles are decidedly slower than their wheeled counterparts. The use of the truck could indicate the system’s own propulsion system is disabled, or that speed is a priority for whomever is moving it.

Intelligence officials believe the plane was shot down by an SA-11 Buk, called "Gadfly" by Americans.

This missile carrier is, get this, an SA-11.

Thanks to @cuffymeh and @theh2.
