F-16N flown between 1991 and 1992 at Top Gun
edit 20/02/21: Fixed bort numbers

NSAWC (now NAWDC) consolidated three commands into a single command structure under a flag officer on 11 July 1996 to enhance aviation training effectiveness. The Naval Strike Warfare Center (STRIKE "U"), based at NAS Fallon since 1984, was amalgamated with the Navy Fighter Weapons School ("TOPGUN") and the Carrier Airborne Early Warning Weapons School (TOPDOME). Both schools had moved from NAS Miramar as a result of a Base Realignment and Closure decision in 1993 which transferred that installation back to the Marine Corps as MCAS Miramar.

A mission built around replicating the last dogfight from the movie Top Gun.
Iceman and Slider are in trouble!

V1.3 Update -  F14A

Lots of sound clips built in, fun easy mission.
*** Jester *** Turn crew communication to no voice in the Jester wheel!

VF-1 Maverick and Goose TOP GUN (1986) by GIZMO - I know it should be Maverick and Merlin, Just need to work on this Skin or hopefully someone has it.
VF-213 Iceman and Slider TOP GUN (1986) BY GIZMO

Based on Tom Cruise's Mustang

Had this patch since 1997, wanted to see a Viper painted like it....   for everyone out there in DCS World, ENJOY!

My NSAWC Skin updated with Fabric helmet texture and new helmet without JHMCS.

Helmet textures used by Porcorosso86.

UPDATED 03/08/2024 (March 8th, 2024):
I thought it would be nice to make a helmet for our favorite dumb@ss. Based off of LCDR Heatherly's helmet from Top Gun, feel free to slap this helmet in any of your RIO seats. That being said, please download from here, instead of handing it out to your friends. Thanks!

Here it is! The quick to play Top Gun mission you've always wanted. Fly as Maverick over the gorgeous desert landscape of Nevada and see if you can win against Jester, Viper, and the other instructors. You'll be joined by Iceman & Slider, Cougar & Merlin, and Wolfman & Hollywood.

This mission features variable triggers to provide some variety and replayability, as well as some surprises in a couple permutations. Be ready for anything!

The freeware community A-4 Mod is required. This mission is designed to be quick and fun, and something you will want to fly again and again to scratch that Top Gun itch. I can also make a modified version with airstart and faster action, if requested, or multiplayer. Happy to do that.

Your comments are welcome and encouraging, so speak up if there's a question, concern, comment, or change you'd like me to make. I am responsive to your feedback and requests. Also, don't be shy if something is broken.

In 1996, the transfer of NAS Miramar to the U.S. Marine Corps was coupled with the incorporation of Top Gun into the Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center (NSAWC) at NAS Fallon, Nevada. In 2016, NSAWC was rebranded as the Naval Aviation Warfighting Development Center (NAWDC), where Top Gun remains a department alongside graduate-level weapons schools for other naval aviation platforms.

This pack contains NAWDC & NSAWC liveries for the Super Hornet Mod by Chiller Juice Studios.
Optional additional helmets for the NSAWC livery.
