To Asker: Certainly not "nuclear". It is a dummy, no explosives.
If you need to shorten it, you could go for "dummy warhead drones", although I don't really like it.

Note from asker:
| Thank you Marco for your valuable answer to this question but can we short this term to "nuclear warhead" as its quite a long.. or with any other appropriate compact term |

equipped with a dummy warhead
'Armed with a dummy warhead' has a slightly self-contradictory feel. I propose 'equipped' instead of 'armed'.
