Description
top gun mig 28
F-5E and F-5F Tiger II. The F-5 is featured in the movie as the enemy aircraft. In real life the F-5 was also used in the DACT role at TOPGUN. This is referred to by Charlie, but not shown, in the film.
The enemy aircraft are referred to as MiG-28s. They are painted black, with no NATO reporting name, and of unspecified nationality, but commentary on the movie's Special-Edition DVD release states that they were originally intended to be North Korean. In real life, the MiG design bureau is a Soviet aircraft manufacturer, although they never produced an even numbered fighter model. The MIG-28 in the movie is portrayed by the American Northrop F-5 (E/F Tiger IIs).

Truly one of my all time favorite aircraft, the F-5. I flew the T-38 Talon, the trainer variant. It's a kickass plane & sweet ride!!
