   I remember the term,  sounding, rocket.  In the cold war days they may have   
   been used by both sides to test the early warning radar.  They   
   were physically small.   
      
   And they were mostly undetectable.  Think of a two foot long re-entry cone.   
   This is extremely useful to test NORAD.  The local police would say "what the   
   hell is that" when found by accident.  They targeted the plains areas near US   
   operations, like out in the the plains region.   
      
   I would just say "stay cool" if found in Ukraine.
