60 minutes, why don't you tell the public the real reasons why China would take over Taiwan in the first place, 95% of the American people have no clue?
US corporations are heavily invested in Taiwan, Corporate America is using the US military to protect their interests and assets in foreign countries around the globe, the question 60 minutes should ask this high ranking US military officer is, why are US taxpayers picking up the cost for the US military to protect corporate America's assets and interests in foreign countries?
Please answer that 60 minutes?
Who cares about warmongering !!! Trillions of Dollars spend in War and weapons, but there is not money for Universal Healthcare !! Shamful !! 😡😡😡
turn the volume up.
Admiral, what went wrong in Afghanistan after 20 years of occupation by the US military, the taliban doesn't even have an Air force or a navy?
OK, so then why does china want it again? So their economies can benefit from American investment and steal even more r&d/tech then what they already have? You funny Chinese op lol
The best part about the top gun is that the parts that should be realistic are, and the parts that are fun and perfectly acceptable to exaggerate for effect are totally exaggerated for fun and movie effect. So well put together and it will go down as a modern classic
I disagree, because it's glorifying the actual navy and giving people a wrong image of what's it like. When the first Top Gun came out in 1986, there was US military waiting in front of thatres to recruit young people who had been brainwashed by the propaganda of the film. They were successful.
Agree 100%!
Absolutely
Maverick is the most mid movie ever, cookie cutter plot. They never even explained who they were fighting. How am I supposed to care about a plot if I don't even know why they're fighting for anything?
@@equalopportunityoffender1816 who they're fighting didn't matter. It's a rogue nation trying to build a nuclear arsenal. The plot was focused on the characters not the enemy. It didn't matter if it was Iran, Russia, or China
I don't need movies like this to be realistic, I need them to be entertaining, and it was the most entertaining movie to come out in a very long time that's for sure.
100%.
Media literacy is so low nowadays that everyone wants to be a Cinemasins critic and point out any minor unrealistic error as if it’s a real critique. You’re supposed to go into movies with a relative suspension of belief, some more than others and a minor goal of any movie is to justify its suspension of disbelief which Top gun has accomplished more than adequately. If Top Gun were made realistic to appease these nerds then the movie would have been less of a memorable experience.
And even then these people would find an angle to pick it apart
@@CyVinci 🙄 ??? And just in the other comment someone shitting on media because they never criticize and think the movie is realistic. U guys need to chill on the generalization.
Well, cant argue people enjoying Top Gun even if its a fantasy ie unrealistic
definitely not the most entertaining in a very long time XD your crazy
That Admiral comes across as one of the nicest and most down to earth guys in the military. Which is crazy, because he controls an insane amount of firepower and is clearly ready to set aside “nice” for dominance anytime he needs to. Interview this guy more!
What really gives that sense is how he casually says "China won't try to invade Taiwan because I won't let them." I wish I could have that degree of confidence in anything I ever say.
"Speak softly and carry a big stick."
@@quillmaurer6563 what will he do ?? You this sheepish mericans and your indoctrination
they're doing this piece to recruit young teens. ofc he's gonna act nice and cool...or else who is gonna follow his orders?
I’m sure he’s different when being interviewed by a pretty woman than he is with his subordinates 😂
There is a current Navy CMDR who flies in a EF-18G Growler with the call sign "ManBearPig".
Yeah, that call sign thing ... my naval aviator brother-in-law told me about a pilot with the call sign Chocks, because a plane had rolled over his legs once. Call signs can be brutal.
I knew a USN aviator (Super Hornet driver) I used to work with and his callsign in the navy was "Dr. Jones" because he looked a bit like Short Round from Temple of Doom.
@@NewtypeCommander that sounds like racial taunting if you ask me
I know of a Marine Super Hornet driver named "Low-T". He looks like it too haha
@@fredwerza3478 nah, I look like Gyllenhaal and my names Donovan, so people started calling me Donny Darko lmfao. Just cause you look like somebody doesn’t mean it’s racist 😂 people from all races can have doppelgängers so don’t make some weird assumptions
@@fredwerza3478 Stop trying to make everything racist.
my VA case manager was a Naval Flight Officer, and he gave the new Top Gun movie a 👍🏻
I listened to the Fighter Pilots podcast and they loved it, Naval and Air Force aviators alike, while also having a good time laughing at the exaggerations.
Filmmaking is nothing like reality, but Cruise and the entire team went to lengths which should be heralded as honorable and paying due homage to the true heroes of the sky.
Also, HUGE thumbs up to Cruise and team for helping Kilmer to reprise his role despite the throat cancer. That shows legitimate class, and Hollywon't is rarely about such things.
Yeah most military pilots I've heard loved the movie and most of the inaccuracies were logistical and the movie would've been unwatchable without them. The intense scene with the SAMs was particularly realistic.
🙏 thank you navy pilots 🇺🇸
Thank you for your service, from the grandmother of a Navy jet program student
Even the original "Top Gun" was far more hardcore than many people believe. An EXTREMELY talented stunt pilot lost his life doing what he loved (during the "death spin"). To this day, it's hard for me to watch the scene, because the entire team decided to leave the footage in the film. Obviously, he would have wanted it that way.
Cruise and his understanding of filmmaking and its importance should be given the STELLAR credit it is due. Just the amount of efforts they put in to honor Kilmer (his throat cancer wreaked havoc, obviously) is enough where people should be nodding in silence and offering a fist pump instead of any different gesture.
🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
Art Scholl
Great that he died 😂😂🤣
Huh?? This is the first I’ve heard of this. Now I gotta go find that scene
Art Schull did not perform the actual stunt of the death spin. He filmed it. And it was during the filming that he encountered a problem and crashed into the ocean. Sadly, his body was never recovered.
@@music4dages Right, so the part about his film of the death spin being left in the movie is not true because neither his body nor the plane wreckage, nor the camera film from that specific shot he was doing prior to the crash, were ever recovered. The scene was left in the movie from other shots, but not the one where he crashed.
Art Scholl was his name.
2:24 Commander Manbearpig?! 😂
I feel safer knowing this guy has got our backs and fronts and aboves and underneaths! Thx ❤
Underneaths
Got your backs ?? Do you live in Taiwan?? Moronic mericans and their sick indoctrination
belows
The all arounds! For the win! Thank you Navy! 🇺🇸👊❤️
I enjoyed seeing him smiling. He was so stern throughout the interview.
He knows that potential enemies are watching as well as normal people.
Since 1986, we knew a Top Gun sequel had to be epic, and the choices in storyline, cast & crew, and the "wow" factor really paid it homage. Well done - Jerry, John, & Tom, and the US Navy "Blue Angels".
Terrific extended documentary! I saw the F-18s in person at the airshow recently and it’s a sight I’ll never forget! In one word- AWESOME!!!
WOWSERS, an airshow! 👏 Try watching them fly of an aircraft carrier in the middle of the Persian Gulf.
@@jskelly1979
Yeah, he should definitely go join the navy so he can be as cool as you.
🤗
I went with some friends to a Blue Angels show during fleet week. One female friend was kind of bored so I started explaining how it was, in a lot of ways, a tactical display. Pointing how how a jet could pop up from the hills by the Golden Gate, fire off a missile and leave the area before you could even register what was going on. Like anything, more knowledge behind you enhances the experience. She no longer sees airshows and "kind of dumb". The Blue Angels remain combat ready during their displays. They're not stripped down for acrobatics and there's no visual trickery. Flying Paint is a skill in itself.
I'm glad you enjoyed the airshow. The Navy needs all the support it can get and everyone appreciates it.
Whether it is realistic or not, after 3 years of COVID shut down, Top Gun Mavericks was our first movie to watch on theater when it came out. It was so good to be back in theater, and when those jets flew by, the sound was incredible!!! What a movie! ...on a side note, they should really bring back F-14.
Who is “they” and why should “they” being back the F-14?
I have an Atmos home theater and the movie sounds pretty awesome there as well
@J K too many Trumpers stink up this world
@@everythingman987 US Navy :(
Completely agree! I was excited to see a big movie in a theater, and Top Gun was so much fun! It really felt like old times coming out of the theater that night.
The Admiral is a super nice guy and very confident which makes me feel more secure.
My dad flew F-4Js out of Kaneohe and Okinawa in 1986-87 in VMFA-212. Also call-sign "Pappy" because he looked 35 at 24. And yes, movies are movies. (Saving Private Ryan opening scenes are the most realistic)
@Phillip Banes Realistic, not accurate. Both terms aren't exactly the same.
@Phillip Banes Not interested
@Phillip Banes Lol
@Phillip Banes obviously you and no one that matters to you served. I watched an old Vet break down in the theater. You have the gall to nitpick a scene by one debate about the physics of a bullet impacting a body of water. You missed everything. When you grow up you might understand, boy.
I love the Nimitz!!! Can’t believe how long that carrier has been in service!
Lived on that floating city for 6 months in the early 90's; life time of memories!
She only has 1 maybe 2 cruise's left she was put to sea the yr I was born. Damn I'm old 😂
That was excellent, could have easily watched 30 minutes of those interviews, behind the scenes.
"Pappy" is the coolest call sign I've ever heard of. Can't believe the mighty Nimitz is now the oldest carrier in the fleet.
TheTV series about WW2 ace pilot Pappy Boyington, was always one of my favorite tv series as a teenager. The Admiral's grandfather😯
I was walking by an F/A-18 parked at my local airport a few months ago, and I’m pretty sure “Porkchop” was one of the callsigns I saw printed on its side 😂
My stepdad's elder brother who is a retired US Navy commander and a former C-2 Greyhound and F/A-18 Hornet pilot...His call sign was "Frogbones". 🤦🤷😂
@@vivek27789 The story behind that must be hilarious
@@vivek27789 now that's something you don't see every year! promotion or demotion?
@@jimrichardson3078 Sorry?...What do u mean by promotion or demotion?
@@vivek27789 did he move "up" from transports to fighter/attack or move "down" to transports? I find something fishy in either case 'cause why retrain a guy and not recoup the money you paid in initial platform type training. Say F-14 guys were retrained to F-18's when Tomcats were canxed, but they were already flying centerline jets. Greyhounds are another world away unless you didn't make it in F/A-18 training (Hangar 500 at NAS Oceana use to have a slogan on the wall that read something like: "Never ask a pilot what type he flies, if he's in fighters he'll tell you; if not, why embarrass him?") Kinda gives you the mindset.
I think Junk and Skittles might just actually be the coolest call signs.
They take those call signs seriously. Worked in an office with several officer navy personnel…some had aircrew/pilot backgrounds and some did not. This was at a civilian agency of the DoD.
I was TDY to Korea at the time, but boys being boys, one day they starting giving out call sign nicknames to people as a lark.
The local Navy commander got wind of it and he came down hard. He made it quite clear that if they didn’t knock it off, some careers were going to get ruined.
Tried to ask about it when I returned from Korea, but nobody would say a word.
lmao sounds pretty dumb
Guess commander “tightass” didn’t like his. Suited him perfectly though.
@@ElDukeAy A person without honor or achievement might say that.
@@williamwilson6499 Call signs are typically not flattering and are usually based on something embarrassing so "Tightass" might just be an actual callsign.
@@LeCharles07 That’s not true. Christ…too many kids out there with no life experience.
Something about those planes flying make me sleep better at night, much gratitude, to the brave men and women flying them. 🇺🇸
I'm just glad Maverick is zooming around in those skies protecting the good ole USA and all the Mighty Democrats who live here! ❤❤❤
Yeah, not all call signs can be as awesome as “Bob”
Ok I could watch Pappy all day!!!
You should find out which Navy Pilot has the real call sign "Maverick" or "Iceman" and interview them. It would be interesting to know the grief they have gotten.
The biggest problem with Top Gun Maverick is that the US would never attack a nuclear site heavily defended by SAMs the way it was portrayed in the movie. Almost certainly, the attack would start with missile attacks and/or SEAD missions to destroy the SAM sites, and the nuclear facility would also be likely taken out with either stealth fighters/bombers and/or long range cruise missile. Seriously, the F-18 would not have a role here, it couldn't survive that environment, no matter how much of a hotshot pilot was flying it.
Neither was the actual premise of them both surviving getting shot down and proceeding to destroy the base with just two men 😅
A fictional movie or a documentary
US did that during the Gulf War I believe. I think it was the Q package strike where one of the strategic targets was a nuclear reactor or something similar in Baghdad. The city was super heavily defended by thousands of SAMs and AAAs.
Try to remember that Maverick can outsmart most SAM sites
I don't remember seeing "based on a true story" in the opening credits. Just enjoy the story
The sight of 3 aircraft carriers loaded with up to date aircraft, and backed by a massive destroyer fleet makes me glad those weapons are protecting us rather than hunting us.
Okay, I'm intrigued about the story behind call sign junk and skittles!😂😂
With my luck I’d be the skittles 🙄 “Come on guys, you know I want to be called CJ” or call me “Cold Johnson”
*“Calm down skittles, this is why we can’t take you seriously. You’re always all over the place when you fly…”*
Pappy sounds like he’s actually a pretty cool guy. The fact that he still gets up every day and goes at his age is pretty extraordinary.
He’s 58…
Top Gun Maverick was an incredibly entertaining movie. Many experts compliment the accuracy of the film. I'll probably watch it once a year ...or twice.
Lol it was ok
Ok cbs I see y’all doing a huge promo for Paramount streaming, top gun (maverick)
"It ain't like the movies, not everyone gets a cool callsign..."
-Pappy
Yeah. LOL
-"Kaveman"

1:08 that paint job is 🔥
👍 Why is this segment so short? I want more!
An entire story on our Navy aired tonight on 60 Minutes. Check it out. It was very eye opening about the status of the USNavy in comparison to China.
My uncle Ned has confirmed Top Gun 3 has been green lit! Potential title Top Gun 3: Maverick Elite Protocol
*Top Gun 3: Maverick Involuntary Retirement for Failure of Selection for Promotion*
My daughter was stationed aboard the Nimitz! Go Navy!
My uncles are now retired one was a chief e-7 and the other petty officer first class e-6. They used to tell all kinds of cool stories and got to see some airshow most recent the blue angels and the thunderbird at point mugu
Thank you Navy! Always been my favorite from being a child and now 51! Yes a lot from my father as well…”GO NAVY!”
I was very happy when I reported aboard my first A-7 squadron (VA-94) because they already had a pilot with the call-sign 'Stinky.' No matter what call-sign they gave me I knew it couldn't be worse than his.
"its not the plane! Its the pilot" ✈
It's a movie, it's entertainment, enjoy and fill your bucket with popcorn.
proud of my country,..
Didn't know the Admiral was on the payroll at Paramount... 🤣
Callsigns are often used to make fun of each other. Frequently people are named after goof ups they make as a new pilot at the squadron. I met a Marine fighter pilot named "Low T" haha
How did she completely forget to mention the best call sign these ears have ever heard....pickle rick!!! 😂😂😂
The admiral seems to be a well adjusted down to earth guy , a trait just as important as skill and ability in a job that Carries such responsibility
That guys callsign was "Manbearpig" That is AWESOME.
Realism on the Nimitz is the 10 part PBS series Carrier, which came out around 2005. I bought the set, and I remember my 3 years on the 07 level
Oh no. There were parts of the movie that were not that realistic. I guess it's time to get rid of the Matrix, Braveheart, the Patriot, the Bourne Identity, James bond movies, etc.
And every movie that ever existed
Agree. That's why its called a movie and not a documentary
Real top gun pilot says everything is realistic except the back story.
60 seconds, "one thing that they did get right is, every pilot has a call sign."
Where's the reality check?
No. 4 from the squad..
Omg! Junk and skittles 😂
I nearly cried 😅
imagine threatening somebody and you open with "this is callsign skittles..."
Former USPACFLT sailor here.
"Will China take Taiwan?"
"No."
Make this man SECDEF.
He might want to read Sun Tzu. "There is no greater danger than underestimating your opponent."
Did love the movie when I trained my brain to look past some large plot holes 😂
Thanks Pappy you are a legend.
Call signs are a dig or burn.
I salute all men and women who stood up for my Country.
By having the knowledge & ability, T Cruise requested to actually pilot the F/A-18 during production; the US Navy appropriately declined.
GOD BLESS MEN AND WOMAN WHO SERVED MILITARY
USA 🇺🇸 IS NUMBER ONE BABY!!! I love my country!!
Yes, you are the #1 baby. Rest of the world just rolls their eyes and gets back to real freedom.
00:25 What's up with her left hand?
His responses are very well versed
I appreciate all of the armed forces for everything they do and the sacrifices they make... with that being said. It's a movie. They'll never make movies to replelicate exactly the way it really goes down in the military. That's like giving the enemy a step by step guide (whoever that may be). Love this movie, though, enough so to buy the bluray set, and I haven't bought a movie in years before this one.
This is like saying Rocky Balboa gets a reality check from Tyson Fury lol. Wild! We obviously forgot movies are "loosely based" on reality. Both "Top Guns" were incredible.
Whose we?
My takeaway from the interviewees of this video is that the movie was pretty accurate...I don't think 'reality check' means what 60 mins thinks it means
2:25 "manbearpig" thats a cool callsign with probably a very interesting story behind it
Awesome
Did he say ain"t at the end?....that was cool, that is a hidden clear message to the uptight politics of Washington
"You're going to take on 2 5th Gen fighters in a 3rd Gen Fighter Tomcat!"
"It's not the plane, it's the pilot."
Me: "Riiiiighttt...."
If you have a problem with Top Gun, blame the Navy Advisors, and the Producers that wanted it to be fun, rather than a 2 hour recording of a guy flying in a straight line.
Here we go two great forces facing each other. Thank you 60m!
The STRONGEST NAVY in the WORLD providing max power from the Sea to almost anywhere within aircraft reach and having TOP GUN Pilots is just a plus! GO NAVY! From a prior Goat that seldom hungout in the GOAT LOCKER.😊 Seventh Fleet is where the action is.
Yet not a SINGLE war won 🤣🤣
@@kwamebushman606 You don't win wars, you only lose less than the other guy.
@@kwamebushman606 The Americans defeated Japan during the Battle of Midway you CHUMP...4 carriers to The yanks 3, withthe third being the damaged USS YORKTOWN crawled from the Coral Sea Battle , was worked on in 48 hours at Pearl and re deployed to meet up with Enterprise and Hornet....go read some history before you state useless comment goofbal!!
I'm still mad Maverick didn't get the best picture Oscar. It was clearly the best picture.
The Oscars are stupider than the Rock and Roll HoF and that's saying a lot.
Very nice commentary btw.
I'd be surprised if the admirals callsign didn't also come from a few under/overshot landings in pilot training. Pilots will know, lol
I had to think about that for a second...Then I got it👍And being called Papi is probably better than being called Vasi
The callsign "Pappy" is not because of under/overshooting the PAPI. It is to refer to someone being older than the rest of the squadron.
@@jsurfin1 in the first place, do carriers even have PAPI's? I heard carriers have a flight deck officer that helps to direct the pilots glide slope
And some just get the call-sign Bob.
😄
Great story, compelling and rich
GOD bless our men and women that are overseas may GOD bring them home safely.
Thank you for your service.
Signed,
Every single American
When you get chills from that man speaking as an American. I wouldn’t want to be on any opposing sides
Some great real callsigns I’ve seen: KNARP (King of Non-Athletic Regular People), Jufro, Jildo, Fluffer, Secks, Mopey, Shrek, Slumdog, Slingblade.
I guess no one liked Star Wars?
Top Gun deserved an Oscar for Movie of the Year & Tom Cruise Best Actor Oscar
🎧 🎯 🏴☠️ ☕️
If I had to land a jet on an aircraft carrier in the middle of the night at sea my call sign would be Poopdeck.
Love BOTH movies. We know they are just movies, but the flying combined with the music is exciting and fun to watch. Kudos to the directors. Because people are tired of movies that glamorize criminals.
Which movies glamorize criminals?
China is definitely going to at least try and take Taiwan. The only question is will we be smart enough not to start a war over it?
I think China is in observation mode right now. I expect they will wait until after the 2024 elections to see if enough isolationists gain power. Xi will then adjust his aims and start date as appropriate.
Not a chance. Comrad Xi sees his buddy Comrad Putti getting his but whipped in Ukraine & is going to visit Putti tmw thru Wed to offer him a shoulder to cry on. As for Chyna, too many families with only ONE son bcuz of the implementation of Comrad Mao’s one child policy that no family is willing to give up their family name for Xi’s adventurism and dream of trying to take Taiwan.
@@Slotcarking this is what we have? Brain's that literally have been changed because of manipulation? Pathetic, maybe you should just try shutting up if you don't have anything positive to add. Just saying...
@@Slotcarking Taiwan would get very ugly very fast. Ukraine has seen casualty rates in the 200 per day, somthing like that on the worst parts of the front line for both sides. Taiwan war would see 5000 to 10,000 dead per day.
@@Bradgilliswhammyman IMO the Chinese have every right to take back Taiwan. The same as they have with Ukraine.
Dude's call sign is MANBEARPIG. Classic.
You aren't allowed a cool call sign - that is the rule, and that goes double for NAVY pilots who are especially brutal with their namings
Imagine getting the callsign "junk"...
That really just takes all of the coolness out of the cockpit
Thank you to all the service men and women.
His answer on China was pretty badass not gonna lie. Paraphrasing but basically, they won’t invade because I say so 😂
He might regret saying that when China launches about 500 anti-ship missiles at his carrier task force from the Chinese mainland 90 miles from Taiwan.
What drugs is this cat on?? My brother in law is a full blown admirel and also a top gun trainer and him and 12 pilot's laughed all the way threw the movie! Fairy tale!!🤣😂
Love our U.S. Military.....God Bless them all!!
I enjoyed the second Top Gun movie but the F-14s in the first one were a sexier jet. The F-18 is not a mach 2 fighter and doesn't have the hypersonic, AIM 54 Phoenix missile. The F-18 was pretty cutting edge during the first Top Gun but was not "Hollywood" enough to take a front seat to the Tomcat.
Oh wait. I thought Top Gun Maverick was a documentary. Glad 60 Minutes sorted me out.
Next they are going to fact check Mission Impossible. 😆
The idea of not having a war is most peoples natural thought but being on the defensive and ready for anything is always a nice thing to have in place. May we as intelligent beings continue to build a world that can one day be a paradise for everyone. Wishing everyone peace and prosperity beyond the beyond!❤
The first time I ever saw Norah O'Donnell come off her high horse was the way she referred to the pilot's designated call sign "JUNK".
