It was no doubt making its way from a US gun show to Mexico.
That’s an AIM-9 Sidewinder. Probably spent in a live fire exercise.
Oooh, a gratuitous “Money Pit” reference! Nice!
There’s all kinds of interesting stuff that gets churned up in the Gulf after a storm. Back in the ’60’s I saw an ejection seat and parts of an F-106 wash up on the beach in Key West after a hurricane.
