Photos with the remnants of the missile have appeared on the Internet. According to the Militarny publication, the photo shows the AGM-88B Block III version of the missile. The production date of 1991 hints at it.

The HARM missile was produced in three modifications: AGM-88A, AGM-88B and AGM-88C. The first one had two versions (block I and block II), and the second one (block III). The third, in turn, was also produced in two versions (block IV and block V).

AGM-88B Block III was introduced in 1990. The missile boasts a new engine, warhead, and an upgraded homing head with a memory device that ensures prompt rewriting of information depending on the type of target hit. The missile is equipped with a 66 kg high-explosive warhead. It is detonated by a non-contact laser fuze. AFU launches AGM-88B Block III from aircraft.
