The plane did NOT CLIMB AT ALL.
Unlike the CIA, I spoke to the person best in position to make that assessment. He is an airline captain who was flying PIC, at virtually the same altitude as TWA800 staring at that plane when it exploded. I've spoken with this guy three times, once for more than an hour. (Pilots like to talk to other pilots, even single engine guys like me.) He emphatically told me that NOTHING CLIMBED.

Did he say if he'd seen some sort of missile hitting the aircraft?
No sensor I can think of showed a climb. None.
What was the most telling thing was that just a few hours after the incident Bill Clinton went on TV to proclaim that no DoD sensor data was available. BS. Anyone who has ever been in that field knows what sensor data was available for that flight and there was plenty of it.
