Top Gun: Maverick

The last shot is an F-14 Tomcat, right? Swing wings, just like in the original.

All the other planes in the trailer are F-18s, I believe.

The last shot is definitely a Tom Cat, and all others are some variant of the Hornet.

The Navy phased the F-14 out years ago, so we'll see what crazy story they come up with to bring it back.

I loved that plane as a kid, the swept wing concept and Phoenix missles were so cool. F-18 was a good choice for a successor, I've always said they sound like the sounds of hell when they fly over head. The F-35 just isn't as sexy as it's predecessors, it's more of a bloated mess.

Why would the Navy have a 60ish year old combat pilot?
It's cheaper  :lol:

I had the GI Joe F-14. Coolest toy I owned as a kid.
