Are those actual AIM-132s or mockups? If you notice the close up pic on the missile the tail cone is solid.. No rocket motor exhaust...

Yeah... Theyre dummy rounds (no yellow band - live warhead, and no brown band - live rocket motor), but the RAAF now does operate AIM-132... If you look at the AIM-9's and AIM-7's you'll see those are just weight as well....
