Please excuse my ignorance at my poor spotting/id qualities but did anyone see the military "thing" land here at about 1105 today. The thing (flew right over the top of me) looked like a Dornier 328 - twin turbo prop.....any takers please.

I flew out of Whenuapai today and it was on the tarmac. It looked like an Aeritalia G.222. Could not see the roundels, sonot sure which country it is from.
