You know what happens to you if you go through with this.
Where am I?
You should be at least a two-star admiral by now, if not a senator. Yet here you are: Captain. Why is that?
It galls me to say it, but... for reasons known only to the Almighty and your guardian angel...
The end is inevitable, Maverick. Your kind is headed for extinction.
You two have something in common. Cyclone here was first in his class back in '88.
We don't want you to fly it.
This will be your last post, Captain.
Who'd you piss off this time?
Are you mad at me?
Fellas, this here's Bagman.
What I want to know: who's gonna be team leader? And which one of y'all has what it takes to follow me?
But that's just you, ain't it, Rooster?
Everyone here is the best there is.
Overboard! Overboard! Overboard!
Your instructor is a TOPGUN graduate with real-world experience in every mission aspect you will be expected to master. His exploits are legendary. And he's considered to be one of the finest pilots this program has ever produced. What he has to teach you may very well mean the difference between life and death.
But what the enemy doesn't know is your limits.
If I shoot either one of you down, you both lose.
Say, Phoenix. How's about we tell everybody 'Bob' stands for something? Other than Robert, I mean.
That's why we call him Hangman.
I'm dead, ****.
How low you want to go, Rooster?
Every mission has it's risks. These pilots accept that.
You're supposed to be in the navy!
In a head-to-head with these planes in your F-18s, you're dead. That's why you need to get in, hit your target and be gone before these planes even have a chance of catching you.
You put your team in danger, and your wingman's dead.
It's not the plane, sir, it's the pilot.
You really don't get it.
No offence intended.
Ice, please, don't ask me to send someone else to die. Please don't...
It's time to let go.
I'm not a teacher, Ice. I'm a fighter pilot. A naval aviator.
If I send him on this mission, he might never come home. And if I don't send him, he'll never forgive me.
The navy needs Maverick. The kid needs Maverick.
Who's the better pilot? You or me?
He will always resent me for what I did.
I was trying to be the father he lost.
If you lost your wingman up there, you'd keep fighting. You wouldn't just give up.
Trust your instincts. Don't think, just do. You think up there, you're dead. Believe me.
So what do I do? Risk the lives of my pilots and perhaps the success of this mission or... risk my career by appointing you team leader?
Captain Mitchell! You're where you belong.
If I don't see you again, Hondo, thank you.
We've got impact! Check, direct hit! Direct hit!
Bull's-eye, bull's-eye, bull's-eye!
What the hell were you even thinking?
Oh, my God.
Both runways are cratered. How are we gonna get this museum piece in the air?
Mav, this is a taxiway, not a runway. This is a very short taxiway, Mav.
What's that signal? What's he saying?
Come on, Mav.
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is your saviour speaking.
Hey, Hangman, you look good.
Please don't tell me we lost an engine.
Thank you for saving my life.
