Unbuilt 655-II small SAM (1966) for S-25MR upgrade (SA-1 GUILD)

[overscan (PaulMM)]

Intriguing small weapon, which appears to have been fitted to the fin tips of a largely standard improved SA-1 (217M) missile. Maybe intended to intercept manouvreing targets? Also seems modular/multi-stage with one drawing seeming to show 4 modules. Info gratefully received.

Maybe intended to intercept manouvreing targets?

Such as fighters escorting the primary target, homing in on their own emissions perhaps? Could well be.
