[@fukuoka-musician]

In the middle of the cold war. Let's ignore the fact that they are MiGs for the sake of argument. They assumed people were bright enough to read between the lines.

[@stinkyfungus]

Both of you are wrong 1. Mig28 was a fictional plane designation (and they used the F5 to simulate it) the script called for mig29s, but this was pre CG so they had to use what they could get (See iron eagle from the same era using Israeli kafirs as "mig 23s" ) 2. The script called the "bad guys" out as North Korean - if you pay attention to the close up shots of the Mig28/F5s you'll notice a yellow ring around the red star on its roundels- very similar to the N. Korean airforce roundel. It was common in the 80's to use a fictional "stand in" for a real belligerent state (Iron eagle used the fictional country "Bilya" based off several smaller arab countries of the time. ) this was done to avoid any international butthurt, and ensure a wide range of countries would release it.

[@DJ-fd4qk]

@@guts-141 nowhere in the movies does it refer to the MiG-28 as a modified F-5. Mikoyan is literally a completely seperate Russian company who makes their own aircraft. The F-5 is an American made fighter from Northrop Grumman. The MiG-28 is completely fictional and they decided to use an F-5 as the mock-up because they didn't have access to any modern Russian aircraft at the time.

[@thunderboltcougar5626]

For those who'r wondering why those F5 were dubbed as Mig28. Keep in mind, that the reason was that during filming in TopGun 1986 they'r using actual aircraft, Not CGI. The Soviet would never sell their mig for Nato countries. Eventhough US do have several Migs through various mean, the limitation for spare parts means they didn't or never allow the use of them for just a movie show. Those Migs were invaluable asset for study, not for movie. As a result, they use what available in Navy's inventory, twin engines F5 as twin engines Mig29. But since TopGun never once depicted who'r their enemy, they changed it into fictional aircraft (29 minus one) Mig28, fictional country with fictional insignia. Just think it like this, Tom Cruise cast as Maverick, F5 cast as Mig29. You found similar thing in Iron Eagle w/ F4 cast as Mig29; Kfir cast as Mig23. Simple.

[@JThomson-vh1eo]

Also in the 70s and 80s, F5s were used by the aggressor squadrons[fake Russian aircraft attack units

Looking at the enemy planes I thought they didn't look anything like a MIG. The aircraft used in the movie are U.S. Navy F-5s. The F-5 is a second generation jet fighter (mid-1950s to early 1960s). The F-14 Tomcat was retired in 2006.

[@Miguel-jr3gb]

[@thunderboltcougar5626]

Well they didn't used actual mig (eventhough they "secretly" had them), due to many reasons. In Iron Eagle, they used kfir as mig, also sa330 puma as mi24 hind in Rambo. Edit: i still wondering, they use fictional mig28, but which aircraft they actually refering to? Mig29 or mig23? And the insignia kinda resemble to the soviet's & north korea's, but also different in design & color respectively. Oh and i also learned there's another reason aside from aircraft's avaibility depend on the location/country of the show's ,was also for their wing design. It easier for audiences to differ f14 from f5 tiger as well as f16 from kfir from their size & wing design. So i believe they won't use F5 as F16's nor F18's adversaries.

[@ProGamer-gc3wv]

Kid's : USA Jets are Best 😭😭😭 Source : Top gun in school 🤡

[@KeishinB237]

Title is a bit misleading. It's never specified what country the hostile nation is in the film. However, the directors have since stated that they were meant to be North Korean but due to tensions at the time they were changed to an unknown country.

[@Crusader1815]

Of course the NPC who uploaded this jumped on the hate Russia bandwagon as mindlessly as most other people who believe every official talking point. Ironic that we (I mean, the regime we live under) are the bad guys now.

[@williamputman5988]

loved the clip, thanks for the share

[@hawawa_]

The only country with F-14 Tomcat still on their active fleet is Iran.

[@thecollinzboy]

Dude top gun is never based on reality they never say what nation the enemy is they just base it off of real world aircrafts and call them enemies

[@paytonwirtjes523]

I'm sure America still has hangers of em too just don't use em often

[@shashikumarsah562]

This was the epic movie ❤❤❤

[@craigcooknf]

As if you would have a brick of a Polaroid camera in a steel coffin, pulling all of those G's. ...

[@DucatiPaso750]

It's a movie!! It's not factual, it's fantasy!! I'd hate to think what you thought when you saw Titanic!!

[@roguerover30k]

Sure, it was quite common and they'd strap that shit down tight, it's all good.

[@sujanbanerjee6297]

The last one’s a classic 🥰

[@aidengrieve9461]

Fun fact: the planes used for the Russians were actually Canadian jets

[@jakeyboyyt6627]

Northrop F-5Cs I believe and it's funny because the guns should be on their noses and not on the wings and they don't use rotary 20mm guns

[@amgoneisdope]

It just shows how stessful these situations are the crew on the carrier sweating

[@tacheovale]

When avoiding the Mig missiles, why does Iceman never use flares? In Top Gun: Maverick the Iranian F14s have flares, did the American F14s not have countermeasures?

[@mikealpha1365]

Iranian F14s? No one ever mentioned Iranian F14s in the movie

[@tacheovale]

@@mikealpha1365 Okay, the F14s belonging to the unknown country that was the only country, other than the USA, to operate the F14.

[@mikealpha1365]

@@tacheovale lol i suppose you’ve never heard of fiction. Did it ever occur to you that maybe they wanted to pay homage to the original movie and thus found this the most appropriate way to fit it into the script.

[@guts-141]

Not sure why everyone in the first movie never used flares Maybe internet will answer that

[@MotoroidARFC]

Because of real aircraft flying relatively close to each other, ingestion of flares into the engines could have been a concern. Look how close they are in that shot where the F-5s are all over that single F-14 or that shot behind Ice Man where 3 of them are maneuvering. Having flares flying about in that would have been dangerous. Nowadays you can use footage of single aircraft pumping out flares and use that as a template for multiple aircraft just like they used CGI for the SAMs launching and going after the Hornets in the second movie.

[@65jerzy]

You really good at explaining thank you

[@Sam-mv3if]

The film never mentioned they were Russians.

[@luigimrlgaming9484]

The Soviet Union still existed so we assume it’s the Russians

[@Waitomo64]

love it.. saw it the moment it hit Australia... and I have a copy on KZbin...! fun eh

[@denerobbins6563]

Russian pilots? the enemy is not identified in either film, we just know they are foreign, Russian is just assumed.

[@AdrianFahrenheitTepes]

I thought they were North Korea in the first movie.

[@reonn2stoned]

“Im bringing him in” “YOU’RE GONNA DO WHAT?!?!”

[@victoriaregina8344]

Seeing how it's supposed to be SOVIET pilots, the pilots could very well have been UKRAINIANS 🤣

[@Nemean-se5k]

@@jamestopoleski9255 yeah and they also arent actually migs, they used f5 and a4 for the film, and the migs in the this mart of the movie are f5s, which dont even have internal rotary cannon

[@guts-141]

They said it was planned to be North Koreans

[@FinancialFreedomandPhilippines]

@@Nemean-se5k F5's have twin cannon in the upper nose.
