Things I noticed:
1. That cockpit display seems to show 5 internal AAMs (confirmed 5x AAMs by text in upper left hand corner). The only thing I can think of is a AAM on the center pylon (as the 5th AAM is centered perfectly).

2. Gun shows 480 rounds (text in upper left corner

Interesting to note that the SMS display shows 5 AMRAAMS with station 4 ready to fire! Must be a centerline station noting it's configuration on the display.

Funny thing is that the centerline station is still only listed as A/S (Air to Surface).

It is funny but not implausible given that 2 heaters are already hanging outside the airframe. Either not a first day of war configuration for forward deployment, or it's a config waiting for handoff info from said forward deployed assets.
