Dozens of independent eyewitness reports, radar data, and the infamous Kabot photo all point toward an accidental shootdown during a military exercise. I suspect that the Kabot photo shows not a missile, but a target drone that was the intended target of the missile that struck Flight 800. Obviously, something went wrong, but numerous reports of missiles in the air over LI Sound (including suspicious objects that I have observed that did not appear to be normal civilian or military aircraft) indicate that it is the site of mostly harmless military testing of weapons systems.
