Apologies, I'm in a hot and irritable mood today.

The missile also changed trajectory

The balloons wouldn't be hot so they are invisible.
Maybe it's helium balloons getting hit and then explode and become visible?
I'm grasping at straws.

Helium is not flammable nor does it explode...

FLARES DO NOT HOLD AN ALTITUDE!
Nor are they impervious to sidewinder missiles or the air displacement such a missile produces
The intense heat of the flare would make it an appetizing target for the sidewinder, hence the reason most combat jets carry flares to divert incoming "heat seeking" munitions from their bright hot exhaust

Because they would rather just call them flares without watching the end where they fly away
Could you please give a timestamp when the objects fly off sideways?
Watch the whole video and stop moving the goalposts you see it at the end. That last 2 min
From about 4:20 to 4:35 an object appears, which looks similar to what could be flares, and clearly fly's left and up, quite quickly. Pretty hard to tell what it would be. But I doubt it was a flare.edit on thppmSat, 18 Jul 2020 20:47:42 -0500k2007America/Chicago1847 by Sparkymedic because: (no reason given)
