Narrative:

On apr/xx/95 after refueling in west point, virginia at about XA00 pm I was flying southeast to ocracoke island, nc. About 20 mi southwest of norfolk I contacted ZDC and requested status of the various restricted areas along my route. I was told to contact giant killer on 118.125 to receive an update. I gave giant killer a position report and my destination and asked for the current status of various restricted areas along my route. I was told that R-5301, R-5302, and R-5313 were all active. I then flew to the east of R-5302 and then proceeded through the eastern portion of R-5314 as it was not mentioned as being active. This route would allow me to fly west of R-5313 towards my destination at ocracoke. While in this airspace I noticed 3 military fighters to my right. One of these fighters flew directly underneath me about 200 ft below me. I took no evasive action and there was no further contact with these aircraft. My transponder was set to 1200 in the mode C position. I feel that if I did interfere with a military exercise within the R-5314 airspace, I should have been notified by either ZDC or giant killer that this airspace was in use.
