So my guess would be it hit R4 or S4, maybe?

The Orbital Police Officer has spoken: https://bsky.app/profile/planet4589.bsky.social

My own plot of the final orbit, showing the Roskosmos estimate of the path between reentry and impact in purple. I guess that Kosmos-482 SA reentered somewhere along this track between India and the ocean south of Australia.

It doesn't look southwest enough to have hit R4. Looks like mostly S4, maybe extending a bit into S3 or R3.

@spicyspaceelephant@lemm.ee, I think you were closest!
