Pardon my ignorance, but how could the Israelies get an ID on the missile? Anyone?

From the data they acquired while tracking and attempting to defend against it. It's like a signature.

Pardon my ignorance, but how could the Israelies get an ID on the missile? Anyone? Probably picked up its emitter on passive gear. Everything has its own signature. According to the article they had their EW gear turned off, however. It is still possible for a non-targeted vessel to have seen it.
