I very much doubt it. This is a display unit. Has zero purpose on an uncrewed system.
Furthermore ballistic missiles remain suborbital. This device is usefull to track your position on orbit.
Ballistic missiles don’t reenter using retro rockets, so showing the reentry point to the no-existing crew in case they activate the non-existing retro rockets has limited usefullness either.
In short ICBM’s don’t have this or similar systems for the same reasons they don’t have cuckoo clocks. They are not usefull there.
