Here’s more in detail about the missiles - they were training missiles used by Lebanon.

It doesn't exactly confirm they are training missile dummies -

The FBI has no information on the issue as of yet, but the missiles are being inspected to find out if they are indeed live or training units and an investigation into how they ended up in an airliner in Belgrade is underway.

Five mile range-— launch from a remote site on an appropriate vector to detect/home a laser designator, which provides the guidance reference to intercept target.
