Intact? It's clearly missing the head.
The Nose section in an AAM typically consists of seeker, guidance electronics, and proximity fuse with the warhead likely right behind it (possibly still in the intact mid-body) followed by the rocket motor/booster etc

The rear section and mid-body appear mostly intact, including the control surfaces and rocket motor casing and there's no obvious scorch or fragmentation damage, suggesting no warhead detonation occurred. This particular PL-15 either malfunctioned mid-flight and broke up in the air or ran out of fuel or failed to find a target, then crash-landed.

The way AAMs' work is when the missile is close to the target, a proximity fuze (or direct impact) triggers the warhead and it detonates in place, usually a blast-fragmentation type sending high-speed shrapnel outward. The missile bodyshatters or is blown apart with the explosion. In most cases, the front and mid sections are destroyed, especially if the warhead goes off properly. You might find rear parts (like fins or part of the engine casing) on the ground, but never the majority of the body intact unless the warhead didn't detonate.

Information warfare, drawing lines on the sand of us vs. enemy, noone likes Erdoğan, political cost of vilifying Turkey for an Indian is zero, compared to China, etc etc.
And yet, in the near future, Pakistan will get its most advanced weapon systems from Türkiye.

Doubt that, and still, political cost for that will still be very low. Turkish support for Pakistan endured 70 years and like 10 different governments, it won't go anywhere in the future. And Indian Turkish relations will stay minimal for years to come. So no political cost.

Can anyone answer the question? @Nilgiri
Tensions between India and Pakistan, which began in recent days, turned into conflict as of May 6, and arrogant statements directed at Turkey started coming from India. One of the close associates of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, retired General Gagandeep Bakshi, targeted Turkey in a program he attended.

"TURKEY IS A DIRECT ENEMY TO US"
In an interview with Neena Rai's YouTube channel New India Junction, the Indian commander made threats by claiming that Turkey wants to revive the caliphate and become the leader of the Muslim world. Stating that Turkey is a direct enemy to India and reminding that India is a nuclear power, Bakshi said, "If necessary, we can turn Turkey into hell. Turkey has been behaving badly for some time."

One of the biggest lies I have ever heard in recent hostilities. Songar is designed to support infantry provide fire support/CAS it has a limited range and is not designed to attack air defense systems. Chances are very low that Pakistan has 400 Songar drones.

I don't think nuking a NATO country is a smart decision, but Turkiye should use this rhetoric to get its own nukes.
