EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a thrilling moment in military aviation history. Two F-5E Tiger II fighter aircraft soar through the sky just seconds after takeoff from NAS Miramar in August 1985. These impressive machines belong to the renowned Navy Fighter Weapons School, famously known as TOPGUN. Painted entirely black for their appearance in the iconic movie Top Gun, these fighters exude power and precision. The image showcases the sheer beauty and agility of these airborne beasts as they join-up on the flight lead. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies, these jetfighters showcase their sleek design and cutting-edge technology. The F-5E Tiger II is armed with heat-seeking missiles, including the AIM-9 Sidewinder, making it a formidable combat aircraft. Located at Naval Air Station Miramar in San Diego, California, this airfield serves as an ideal location for training naval aviators. The tarmac glistens under the scorching sun as these jets prepare to embark on another mission. Photographer Dave Baranek expertly captures this dynamic scene with his keen eye for detail and composition. This color image perfectly encapsulates the excitement and motion of military aviation at its finest. Overall, this print is not only visually stunning but also serves as a testament to the skill and dedication of those who serve in our armed forces.
