Tater is correct. There were no F-15's in Top Gun. The premier plane in that movie was the F-14 Tomcat which has been retired. I think it was retired last year, and it was a real old plane. The F-18's are what replaced it, and while they are similar to the F-15, they don't have the speed of the F-15. Other than the brand new F-22 Raptor, I think the F-15 is the only American plane that can accelerate while going vertical.
