The Saudi capture of a Sayyad-2C could have been real: They built a mock-up for the presentation due to safety reasons but the Americans displayed non-explosive components of it.
As the Sayyad-2C likely is one of the SARH seeker guided missiles of the Sayyad-2 family, the loss of a seeker is quite bad as it helps much to develop specialized counter measures against it.
Maybe the Sayyad-2Ds displayed recently are an answer to the Americans that the seeker has been changed after this technology loss.
Could it just be SM-1 internals the Americans fabricated as Sayyad-2 internals? Yes possible.
To use the Sayyad-2C effectively they would at least need a Raad guidance radar truck or better a Tabas or 3rd Khordad for full range.

Israeli Army: Fragments of Syrian Anti-aircraft Missile Found in Golan Heights
Like I said S-300 won’t stop attacks, Israel jets unleash their payloads out in the Mediterranean Sea and do evasive maneuvers afterwards. Not much Syria can do unfortunately
That is not true, they can engage at longer distance. S300's engagement range is higher than Small Diameter Bombs. The problem is success rate and affordability. The resistance needs to develop cheap solutions to counter these threats.
First of all. they said they displayed only part of missile because they didn't capture whole missile(they said this) and your idea about built mock up for presentation due safety reasons is just .....well...there are protocols and safety mechanism when missiles are stored and transported and there is no safety issue there,it is simle you don't call journalists to present them proof of Iran involement and than show them mock up of missile...second I don't think Iran will send(even if they ever choose to)latest and same technology like they use in own air defense systems to area where there is risk of been captured...They can always produce customized missiles for particular country or group..also Iran introducet Active radar seeker similar to Agat ARGS 6-7 years ago and recently new active radar seeker is introduced also so they have probably 2 or 3 different guidance for Raad and talash missiles ...considerning Raad family is developed from BUK-M2 technology and also iranian Kub upgrade is very similar to Belarus digital block upgrade for KUB and Buk M1 I wouldn't be surprised that Talash missiles use same or similar guidance as Raad family .The Saudi capture of a Sayyad-2C could have been real: They built a mock-up for the presentation due to safety reasons but the Americans displayed non-explosive components of it.
