Must have been a Stealth Cessna.
Years ago my Brother and a Friend were Flying a Cessna 337 to San Diego from Van Nuys. They were flying along the Coast and were in contact with ATC on their planned Flight Path.
My Brother was in the right seat and he saw a glint of something coming in from the Ocean. It was a Military Jet Fighter and when they realized what was happening, they figured that was it.
The Military Jet Pilot thankfully saw them in time and pulled up in plenty of time. They did encounter some Turbulence after he passed over them, but there was no soiled Underwear. They were sitting Ducks and very lucky.
but there was no soiled Underwear.

I had ATC put a 737 directly over me slow and dirty on approach with less than normal seperation outside Daytona Bch.. damn near flipped me upside down with the wingtip vortices..
Years ago I was descending into Wilmington NC from Ontario. I was out of 9000 ft. descending at 200 Kt. The military controller called traffic my 9 o’clock 16 miles. I told the guy in the back left seat to look left! It was a perfect 90 degree intercept by a F15 two ship. I looked down and could see the pilot’s knee board. They departed up and to the left QUICKLY. Quite the thrill!
Flying an OH-58A chopper along the SC coast, I often saw A-10s from now closed Myrtle Beach AFB at the same altitude or lower than me.
IP had told me that if I ever thought I was on a collision course, to turn toward them & aim for their tail assembly. Said this would guarantee the fast mover would overshoot me & miss. Never had to use the maneuver.
Strange this F-16/Cessna mixup wasn’t seen by ATC. Assume they both had transponders.
