Narrative:

I was on an IFR clearance at 9;000 MSL direct to rmg VOR. We were in the vicinity of 12J (brewton; al) when I received a TA alerting traffic 400 feet below me and approximately 1 mile to my 3 o'clock. I queried ATC about the traffic; but controller did not respond. Instead; ATC responded to an aircraft on another frequency. I tried one more time with no response. The aircraft climbed to 200 feet below me and arrested his climb. As I was about to disengage the autopilot; I saw him pass beneath us at my 10 o'clock position. Up until that point; I never saw him visually as we were in a low wing aircraft. He was in a left turn and appeared to be level or in a descent. After reporting the near miss to the controller; the response was; 'roger.' we were never given a traffic alert by ATC. The aircraft was a red and white single engine turbo-prop; tandem military trainer. There was an active MOA (pns north) that began 1;000 above us (10;000 ft) and extended to FL180.
