The material of the jet is sub-light, but the radiation emitted by that material is lightspeed. If I throw a rock at you it is not at lightspeed. But if I heat first that rock to a billion degrees the light it is emitting will it will burn you before it hits you. The material of a jet is like a million-degree rock an AU across. We will be ashes long before any physical material hits earth.
