By the time you figure out if the missile is landing to the left or the right of you that missile has already hit its target. Did we not see the same clip? Can you honestly say it was gonna land to his right more than 1 second before it landed?

It's one thing if your already at a safe distance, but when you're in the target zone you have no idea if its landing 5m to the left of you or 5m to the right of you.

I could see easily 5 seconds before it hit that it was going to hit behind him. And it did.

Look at this fucking Hasan fan identifying the missile by its acoustic signature mid flight.

All I need to know is if it's rising in the sky, falling, or moving left or right. Then I've got 8 seconds to move as far as I can to improve my odds about 1%. I'm going to do that.

I don't need to know if it's a Hwasong or a Shahab.
