Because it's a remarkably shitty airframe.

The navy wouldn’t allow them to put their cameras in it. Also, super hornets are kino

Because they’ll have to pay per flight hour and then some, and the f35 is far more expensive.

F-15s are more kino

Because the Air Force uses F-35s as a multi-role fighter jet, the Navy uses interceptors to protect carrier groups.

Oh boy, here we go. Another thinly veiled /k/ thread that will devolve into a shit flinging Any Forums thread because Americans are mentally ill psychopaths that cannot distinguish fiction from reality…I mean…look at who they had as president for 4 years! A literaly cheeto man!

F-18s

the real answer? because there aren't any two-seaters to film actors in.
>also no sovl

>won't give it to Turkey
>user thinks they'll give it to Tom Cruise
Though honestly I'd rather he get to use one than the Turkroaches.

No backseats for actors
F18s look cool whereas F35 is stupid looking
F35 helmets look fucked like a Beluga whale's head

F-22s>all

They're red striped.

Why didn't they use F-150s?

Why are the pilots sitting in the co-pilot's seats?
How can a dweeb like Miles Teller possibly look like a Navy chad?
Why would a 60ish Maverick be cleared to fly anything but an old training craft?

The real answer is because there's no 2 seat version of the F35 to have Tom Cruise sit in to pretend he's the one flying. The should have just filmed Tom Cruise seperately and copy and pasted him on the F35 pilot face. (Not sure what that is called)

Also Top Gun 2 blew the chance to have Tom Cruise flying a modern stealth version of F14 using F22 parts

Somehow he gets an f-14

Why didn't they use valkyries?

He could have used yukikasi

Here's a bigger question:

The fuck did they have us sit through Iceman dying of throat cancer? That shit was depressing as fuck.

This subplot was completely utterly unnecessary.
