      For real. Good flying sequences with enough editing to be cool but not so much that it detracts from the video.

      Really hoping they aren't over hyping TopGun. The mini documentary looked pretty great in the way it was produced. The story line better not suck though. I really miss C-Rock and Wingnut Wicks yearly videos

    This was definitely an epic way of spending 16 minutes. Glad to see the Navy is kicking ass keeping us safe, and also finding time to have a little fun doing it. Bravest person award goes to the person in the minion suit, who's not worried all that extra costume isn't going to get them sucked into an intake. Great vid'!

      You live in a schizophrenic dystopia. The only thing keeping you safe is your national guard. Imperialist aggressors just put you in danger. Like that circus around the Azov sea on the doorsteps of Russia. Go home with your Navy, just a honest piece of good friendly advise. Go catch heroin smugglers from Mexico or something.

    After seeing top gun Maverick this gives you an entirely new appreciation for the F-18 no matter what variant is flying. My heart was in my throat during most of the movie. And watching this was like reliving that all over again. When an FA -18 Squadron is in the bar, May no one put their phone on the bar, or else the drink is on the house.!!

    Confession: The Gunslingers were an A-7 squadron on the Forrestal for the 89-90 Med cruise. As a classic F-14A driver in VF-31, I was never much of a fan of the F/A -18. But I must say, this is an awesome video. Well done and thanks for your service. I'm jealous.
