I wonder...

Almost 200 mph faster than our fastest helicopter... and their Chinese base is right off the coast of Florida... but would it leave a contrail?

Could have been old naval ordnance that went batshit. It happens.
I'll relate a story that happened about 1990. That I witnessed. Testing the sea Sparrow defense system. Firing at towed array target by a jet. Missile launched dropped, skidded the water, went around the ship 2x and then splashed into the sea. This was an AOR. filled with millions of gallons of jp5 and dfm. Needless to say we all shit ourselves.

Did you hear about the jet that flew faster than it's own ordnance and the jet shot itself? Oh yeah, true story. He was in a dive, fired his full auto cannon, didn't see any impact, thought he'd missed, pulled out of the dive and then got hit right in the cockpit as he started to pull up

Looks like easy pickings for a PFC with a Stinger.
