The director of this is Joseph Kosinski, who has nothing but the very forgettable Tron: Legacy and video game ads on his resume. Lol. Plus it's written by 4 people, one of which is the dude who wrote Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li.

The flying scenes in Oblivion were fantastic and by all accounts he is shooting mostly real jets actually flying, including real jets really flying with the actors in them. Tom Cruise flies his own P-51 in this movie like a modern day Steve McQueen. Also he said he wants drones to have essentially no role in the film

they are using the F-18 because twin engine jets are baller as gently caress and super loud which will translate well in theaters

e- the F-35 is also very loud but it's single seat so they can't shoot cool cockpit scenes

I think it's mainly that the majority of jets are Hornets. In fact, there are no Hornets in Top Gun as they were about the same age as the F-35s and the Tomcat was prevalent.

Also, many Hornets are two seaters and that can allow for the in cockpit Pilot to RIO banter like in the first movie.

there's also the fact that like the original, they use what "Topgun" uses in real life

in the 80's they had the Tomcat, SFTI uses the Hornet today
