It is a shot of a cruise missile in flight.

Actually, I don't believe it is. Have another look at the photo. It actually
appears to be a normal passenger type aircraft with dark painted wings. You
can actually see the wings in the photo if you look properly. Plus, there
are 2 engine vapour trails. Does a cruise missile have 2 sources of
propulsion or 1? I'm not sure.
Extend those vapour trails back towards the craft, and they do indeed appear
to come from precisely where normal aircraft engines would be mounted.

Also, there is a faint, light blue shadow(?) just above and slightly to
the right, just over the green arrow, which has full length wings. You
can see it even better in the next highest zoom setting.

It is a really cool picture though!
