Narrative:

Melbourne flight data got an IFR release for cga X from patrick approach control. Local control cleared cga X for takeoff runway 9R. Cga X was cleared up to 5000' initially per clearance. I was working flight data position and turned to observe a bmb jet ene of the departure path of runway 9R. I told local controller who immediately passed the traffic on to cga X. The bmb was in and out of broken clouds east of melbourne airport. Cga X did not observe the bmb at first but then advised the tower he had him in sight. Cga X was at this point 1 mi east of the departure end of runway 9R. Patrick approach control called melbourne flight data and asked if we were still in contact with cga X. I acknowledged affirmative, and that we pointed traffic out to cga X. Patrick approach asked if we would have him maintain 1500'. I advised patrick approach that we had already pointed traffic out and that by this time the bmb was already south of the departure path of runway 9R and no longer a factor.
