[snip, route-views has more than a page of entries for it]
However, it doesn't apprar to be registered:
% whois -h whois.arin.net 132.0.0.0 No match for "132.0.0.0".
568 regisitered to disa.mil, and a number of longer prefixes inside the /10 are registered to .mil addresses:
% whois -h whois.arin.net 132.15.0.0 Kadena Air Base (NET-KADENA-NET) Bldg 792, Kadena AB JA APO, AP 96368-5149 US
The question is, do they legitimately own the whole /10? If so, why isn't it marked in the databases?
