    @calpchen: Isn't that the joint strike fighter?


    What's more, of the medals you unlock, many of them are Air Force commendations, which is just bizarre. I felt like noting this, but again, when you're pretending the Soviet Union still exists, USAF commendations for USN fliers is kind of trivial.

    @calpchen: Upon further review, you're right. That's a USAF asset. Another strike against continuity.

    Does the franchise mean that Tom Cruise (and, as a result, scientology) gets money from this?


    Because if so, I am prepared to cry tears of blood.

    Speaking of Top Gun, did I hear correctly that the really hot chick from Top Gun, Kelly McGillis maybe, came out as a lesbian? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    @Bii Nii Wii Nii Politely Replaces You're Your with Your You...: apparently she just came out in the last month or so. One of Wikipedia's references has the headline "Top Gun star finally comes out: Not Tom!"


    Worth a small chuckle.

    "We wanted to show that the Top Gun program has progressed but is still at the pinnacle of aviation." So, no F14s. Instead, the player flies the modern F-22. "


    So they ditch the Valkyrie for the Sturmvogel II? Lol


    In non mecha fan terms:


    So they ditch the Tomcat for the Raptor? Cool.

    I was more surprised when the logging industry did an hour long special on CNN about the dangers of falling out of a tree. Those evil trees must be stopped, their bloodlust is unquenchable. Nature is wicked. Like the loggers say, "Fell a forest, save a life".
