The earliest reported time of the missile strike was at 1:34 AM local time on 8th January. That would be 2234 UTC on 7th January.
The attack lasted over two hours so it is difficult to narrow down exact times of missile volleys.
Royal Jordanian RJA800 from Amman to Sulaimaniyah had a flight path that passed over Ain-Assad Airbase by 2311 UTC (0211 AM local).
The first missiles fell at 1:34 a.m. They were followed by three more volleys, spaced out by more than 15 minutes each. The attack lasted over two hours.

When the first fusillade slammed down at roughly 1:35 a.m., while other members of his company were either in a bunker or some kind of shelter away from the soft-topped confines of Scarecrow Compound, Kilpatrick was still out in the open making last-minute checks.
Two hours and five fusillades later, the all-clear signal came through.
