Original Note:
This is an artillery shell, you can see the brass driving band towards the end. Probably an illumination shell, without explosives. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M107_projectile A Hellfire missile is 1.6 meters long, and even the R9X variety causes significantly more damage than what we see in the photo. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/05/09/pentagon-builds-knife-bomb-kills-targets-without-exploding/
