The F-14 played it's biggest role in Top Gun but it influenced a generation in other ways. The Macross transforming fighters were based off the F-14. I had several of them as a kid, they were awesome. It's still my favorite fighter plane for all of the above reasons. That said, the F-35 is pretty bad ass too. I am curious to see what they do with them.

I had just graduated high school when this movie cane out. After this scene, I called the recruiter and joined the next day. No shit. I was assigned to the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) just after it was commissioned. I got to the flight deck and realized there were no camera's filming. No high five/low five when I walked past another guy after a Tomcat just took off. Too fucking tired. It was the toughest job I could possibly imagine. But in retrospect, I really had a great time. Sailors know how to party when we hit the beach, that much is certain.

I plan on watching this tomorrow to celebrate Memorial Day. The U.S. Navy still doesn't have a fleet interceptor and air-superiority fighter to rival the F-14 Tomcat's capabilities. The combination AIM-54 Phoenix missile and AN/AWG-9 radar weapons system could track and engage 6 targets simultaneously at a range up to 120 nm. The AIM-54 Phoenix used active tracking in the terminal phase, predating the AIM-120 AMRAAM with this capability by several decades. The latest model of the AMRAAM, the AIM-120D, only approaches the Phoenix in terms of range, without quite matching it (though after decades of development and refinement, the AMRAAM likely does exceed the Phoenix in other areas such as maneuverability, which contribute to probability-of-kill). The F-14 was not the most maneuverable fighter out there, though was surprisingly agile considering her overall size, likely maxing out at around 6g of load on the airframe (where 9g is the typical all-out for a pure air superiority fighter like the F-15C or MIG-29). However, the advanced tactics taught by the Fighter Weapons School made up for this disparity by ensuring our pilots were the best trained in the world. She brought other capabilities to the table, of course, that no other comparable jet before the F-22 could match, such as time-to-climb performance and intercept speed. All of these attributes together made her the best carrier defender bar none, still unmatched all-around to this day.

It WAS green screened back then :D Tom Cruise etc got to fly couple times with the F-14 to get the experience and talks with the pilots to get to the character (check out the video about that) and they had very limited amount of the footage about these aircrafts doing maneuvers etc, why they repeat them very much in the movie. And the movie would have been boring if it would have been realistic, as all those barrel rolls etc are useless in real dogfight, but it looks cool....

Did 4 years as an Aviation Ordnaceman 3rd class in the G-3 Division of the weapons department which are called "mag rats" because we worked in the weapons magazines down in the lower decks. Got out just as Desert Storm began. Some of my fondest memories were from those 4 years.

Our only daughter was born during that time, and I'm still mad that he didn't take one month leave, as I knew I was going to go a little early. He missed it by only a few days, and instead, I had the 'honor' of my mother-in-law 'down there'. Oh God. She kept telling me not to push as the contractions were intensifying, and I was about ready to scream shut up! Lol It was a girl, my only child after 2 marriages, but I have 6 grandchildren, so I'm happy. She did me proud.

That's really cool that you say that!!! I was watching the making of Top Gun here on youtube and one of the real Naval aviators who worked on the movie (call sign "Flex") talked about the aileron rolls in real life and how it had no tatical advantage. He just said that spinning around looked really cool for the movie and the makers of the movie loved so they did it a lot. However the fact that you did in basically a simulated dog fight even though it was just a video game and it gave you an advantage...that's kinda cool to hear.

When Maverick first encounters this final dogfight scene, the naval aviators are pulling off a maneuver called, "rolling scissors". If you're able to watch this in slo-mo, it really looks like 2 or 3 pairs of opened scissors rolling around each other, following a triangular pattern. There's one other time in the movie when you see this text book maneuver

Yep, if you watched the show "Dogfights" on the history channel, on one episode the pilots from the Vietnam War era that are being interviewed on that show talks about that maneuver a lot.

Actually, the Navy gave the producers of Top Gun a lot of access and support, and in exchange they mandated several changes to the script. One of those changes was to remove any mention of Russian or Soviet pilots as being the 'aggressors' in the final sequence. So we're left to assume what we will about the identity of the 'enemy' forces, since it's not explicitly stated. And given the year the movie was released, the best assumption would be that they were either Libyan or Iranian.
