[Final Authority]

For years transport aircraft used uranium to affect fine balance determined in flight testing. It was depleted though but still radioactive. The only reason uranium would be used in a weapon such as the air to air missile is to enhance the kinetic properties of the device. It would make no sense at all to have enriched or even waste grade material as the users would suffer more consequences over time than any enemy. I suspect it is DU. As we have learned over the years, journalists are not very sophisticated with respect to reporting the details of any technical story and to a journalist, uranium is uranium, I suspect.

That's why I looked this up. I think it's pretty clear that the Uranium in this missile is simply an over glorified fragmentation grenade/pipe bomb.
