View Quote
Rooster: [Looking below at 5th Gen fighters] Mav tally two, five o'clock low! What do we do?
Maverick: Okay listen. Just be cool. If they knew who we were we'd be dead already.
Rooster: Well, here they come. What's your plan?
Maverick: Just put your mask on. Remember, we're on the same team. Just waive and smile. Just wave and smile.
Rooster: [watching fighter pilot's hand signals] What's that signal, what's he saying?
Maverick: No idea. I have no idea what he's saying.
Rooster: What about that one, any idea?
Maverick: Nope, never seen that one either.
[One of the fighters banks right and drops back behind the F-14]
Rooster: Shit. His wingman is moving into weapons envelope.
Maverick: Alright, listen up. When I tell you, you grab those rigs above your head. That's the ejection handle.
Rooster: Mav, can we outrun these guys?
Maverick: Not their missiles and guns.
Rooster: Then it's a dogfight.
Maverick: In an F-14? Against fifth-gen fighters?
Rooster: It's not the plane, it's the pilot. You'd go after 'em if I wasn't here.
Maverick: But you are here.
Rooster: Come on, Mav. Don't think. Just do.
Maverick: Okay listen. Just be cool. If they knew who we were we'd be dead already.

[Having spent all ammo shooting down two fifth-generation fighters, Maverick and Rooster are stunned that a third plane is moving to attack - until it is shot down just as it's launching a missile that would certainly kill them]

Hangman: I am good, Rooster. I'm very good. I'll see you back on deck.
