When was your picture taken? I don't think the pans on the southside have been entirely empty of C130s since they moved in from EGDL.

As to your statement
with almost as many civilian as military aircraft
I make it 12 to 2 in favour of the military!

That said these days there seem to be so many charter ac around (& the Voyager is really mock miltary!) that the place is becoming a civil airport in all but name....which is what I understand they want to create eventually, with an airport staffed by almost entirely civilian contractors.

At least by then I and my compatriots will have retired with our uncomfortable memories of what it was like to be part of a military force.
