Claim – Russian Missiles Spotted in Missouri? Wait, What?!

I am immediately suspicious. A new video share claims that Russian missiles were spotted traveling across Missouri. There appears to be a very good reason even if this is true. Let's explore what's going on here.

Before I share this video short off of YouTube, here's the quick version. A viewer shared a pic that appears to have been taken last summer showing what looks like a legit Russian S-300 missile system. This is what that looks like for reference.

Here's the new video share about the sighting in Parkville, Missouri.

I agree with that guy's analysis. If the pic is real, those missiles were traveling to a vacation of target practice to be on the wrong end of F-16's or F-22's air-to-ground missiles. I would also guess that some conspiracy theory folks will likely run with this Russian missile sighting and claim the end is near. Here's my 2 cents - While I always appreciate a good and entertaining conspiracy theory, if something like this were really being done in Missouri, it would not be done in broad daylight where everyone with a camera phone can take a selfie with it.
