Kh-59MK2 Submunition ID

Hello All,

I recently came across a post on an Instagram account called "p1x_militarist" that has been covering the war in Ukraine. The post shows a Kh-59MK2 missile shot down over Ukraine. Apparently these are designed to carry submunitions, which as far as I'm aware is the only Kh-59 variant to do so. I was wondering if anyone could help me ID the subs this missile is carrying. I will post the pictures here; thanks for any help.

Andrew

They almost look like the ShOAB-0.5 but they appear to be missing the flutes so I am thinking it could be something else. Sorry for the picture quality.
