ITS AN INERT TRAINING DEVICE
——-
You are absolutely DEAD WRONG- the yellow band denotes HE, the training AT4 tube has a blue band. I know from EXPERIENCE, Blue in Ordnance denotes “ Training”, Yellow HE ( loaded with energetic material).

Where do people like you come from? You will get someone killed if handling Ordnance.

Speaking of DEAD WRONG, Read the manual.

Color-Coding. M136 AT4 launchers are marked with color-coded bands (Figure 3-5). A black with yellow band indicates an HE antiarmor round (early models had a solid black band). A gold or yellow band indicates a field handling trainer; no band indicates an M287 9-mm tracer bullet trainer
