I thought Skywarp was an F-15.

physics

I can tell it's red because of the speed at which it is approaching the observer, which is an example of the doppler effect. But that means it's going really fucking fast.

whoever said physics is a fucking retard. Red shift and blue shift only occur near the speed of light because the doppler effect for light is

Fl = sqrt(((1+-(v/c))/(1-+(v/c)))*Fs

the shift at low speeds is extremely low when the speed is only around mach 1 to mach 3 (343m/s to 1029m/s) and c being

300000000m/s... well that is self explanatory

So, I'm guessing this is simply the camouflaging at work.
Before anybody shouts, yes. Jetfighters ARE camouflaged.
They're blue-grey. The sky is, generally, grey-ish. (also often blue, but that's just bad luck for the pilots)

Alternatively, the jet broke the speed of sound, making a distinctive diamond pattern.

But probably a shitty camera combined with camouflaging.
