Anything other than Barn Swallow have a tail this long in range on Hainan?

Definitely a Barn Swallow with that dark throat and breastband. Red-rumped can have tail streamers virtually as long as these but they're black and contrast noticeably with the undertail-coverts, and never has a dark throat or breastband.
