It doesn't look like the components were exposed to a high order explosion. Just impact type damage.

That may be due to either a safe/arm interlock or just typical Russian quality issues.

The thing simply dropped from the sky. Amazing it flew that far. Note that Iran generally supports the Russian effort in Syria, so the cleanup was probably very quick.
