12:30 I've seen comments by other fighter pilots who mentioned Rooster actually messed up in the starting sequence for the F14. The reason the ejectable seats didn't work was not they were faulty, but Rooster didn't arm them before they took off (IIRC apparently you need to remove a pin somewhere to arm the seats, and Rooster never did that, most likely because he didn't know about it).

@alexanderdgray Half a mach at altitude is about 300 mph. Didn't destroy The SR71s that reached 3.5 mach and the faster A12. Pilots and radar confirmed this. Mach is not a constant. Altitude has to be considered as well as engine temperature but we have no military aircraft that can reach SR71 speed or altitude. The F104 could reach 103,000 ft unassisted and over 120,000 with assist. Kelly Johnson planes and Lockheed.

To me, the thing that didn't make sense about the mission was where the highest danger from the G-forces would be. It would be the pull-up at the bottom of the crater, not the actual climb out.

All they would of had to do for dropping the laser guided bombs is after release just pull up and do an Immelmann and go back to the deck. You probably can do it before hitting the crest of the mountain where the SAMS are. At peak of the turn throw some chaff and flares out just in case. Then you are low and fast cause you punch it on the way down and you just go out the way you came in which has already proven to be a relatively safe ingress route. Or better yet take 6-7 of the tomahawks and take out the top of the mountain sam sites in addition to the runway/airbase. But it would not of been as exciting.

As a Never flown in a combat fighter or piloted any form of Aircraft (I Was Infantry) I have to wonder if at some point creating a system built into an aircraft where the Computer realises when a Pilot has lost consciousness it would automatically, straighten and level out long enough to climb so that an Auto Ejection system can then liberate the Pilot to attempt to save their life would be initiated. And as a Pilot (yourself Sir) It must be interesting when the 1st thing you see are Wrong Helmets and as you said Play State mission Briefs. I often ignore Story Lines, Plots etc and focus on the "that isn't what "we" would war, use, how we would run jump etc haha, ) aspects in film I wonder if you also do! Thanks for your time in & for all Veterans here & Gone, Past & Present, especially now around Remembrance Day.

Areobatics an important part of fighter pilots ' training to develop air combat abilities in trainee fighter pilots, specially for dogfight scenarios. Yes, it's unfair to compare Tomcat (F-14) with a 5th gen fighter jet, but in case of a dogfight between the two, result very much depends upon the skills and abilities of the fighter pilot that's flying the aircraft. In a BVR combat 5th gen fighter jet can easily shoot down Tomcat(F-14).

To all the pilots that served, or is now serving. Thank you for your service. For those that are reacting to the MOVIE. C'mon!! It's a MOVIE!!! For ENTERTAINMENT ONLY!!! Not to be confused to replace actual Training or Flight School. After all, just imagine the possibility an a recruitment tool. Just like the recruitment rise after Top Gun. The actual pilots that flew the front seat admitted that they joined and wanted to be a fighter pilot upon seeing Top Gun. So relax and just enjoy,,,,The Movie.

Mav getting saved by plot armor is such a Tom Cruise thing. The Su-57s Autocannon would have shredded the F-14 to pieces, also terrain wouldn't have messed up the targeting, that makes zero sense.

Great reaction video. The 5th gen Fighters we're only about 4 to 1 over the older ones. So there is a chance , tho slimmer , a Tomcat could prevail. Especially with less trained pilots as adversaries against Top Gunners. Maybe not F*cked but definitely in deep.
