Later in the film the flashbacks take him to space (yes his F-16 has a space engine!) and his full past as a 'Loyal Officer' 75 million years ago where he wore clothes and flew a plane remarkably similar to the ones he has in the present.
As a large threat approaches, Maverick realises that history is repeating itself and a new battle for Earth is about to begin...

In the past he had failed to defeat an evil space overlord named Xenu because the homoerotic tension with his wingmen had reached critical mass and exploded his Space F-16 at a crucial moment.
Now in the present he must again face a Xenu revived by persons unknown.
Using the remarkable powers of a primitive lie detector, he must purge his homosexual tendancies which will enable him to trust a female wingman to help him take down Xenu's mothership.

Wait, there already was a Top Gun 2.

[Lowk]

I'm not gonna put to much effort into searching for the holy grail that is top gun 2, but IMDb Search says your wrong.

Top Gun 2

In which Tom Cruise crashes into a carrier, a lot.

Also, he is apparently on acid.

Yes, to all.

From Val Kilmer's file on wikipedia:

Following their appearance together in Top Gun, Kilmer and co-star Tom Cruise reportedly have taken their on-screen conflict off-screen. Reports have classified the two as holding a vitriolic hatred of one another. Kilmer even refused to participate in a charity beach volleyball game with Cruise on the grounds that he was "dangerous".

Maybe we'll be lucky and they'll get Val to join the film and the two of them can kill each other!

LOL. That's so bullshit. How has that not been removed? Wikipedia is great.

Awesome, I can see the tagline now - "TOM CRUSE AS TOM CRUISE IN CLOSETED HOMOSEXUAL NAVY AVIATORS 2!"

Sid: You want subversion on a massive level. You know what one of the greatest fucking scripts ever written in the history of Hollywood is? Top Gun.

Duane (Todd Field): Oh, come on.

Sid: Top Gun is fucking great. What is Top Gun? You think it's a story about a bunch of fighter pilots.

Duane: It's about a bunch of guys waving their dicks around.

Sid: It is a story about a man's struggle with his own homosexuality. It is! That is what Top Gun is about, man. You've got Maverick, all right? He's on the edge, man. He's right on the fucking line, all right? And you've got Iceman, and all his crew. They're gay, they represent the gay man, all right? And they're' saying, go, go the gay way, go the gay way. He could go both ways.

Duane: What about Kelly McGillis?

Sid: Kelly McGillis, she's heterosexuality. She's saying: no, no, no, no, no, no, go the normal way, play by the rules, go the normal way. They're saying no, go the gay way, be the gay way, go for the gay way, all right? That is what's going on throughout that whole movie... He goes to her house, all right? It looks like they're going to have sex, you know, they're just kind of sitting back, he's takin' a shower and everything. They don't have sex. He gets on the motorcycle, drives away. She's like, "What the fuck, what the fuck is going on here?" Next scene, next scene you see her, she's in the elevator, she is dressed like a guy. She's got the cap on, she's got the aviator glasses, she's wearing the same jacket that the Iceman wears. She is, okay, this is how I gotta get this guy, this guy's going towards the gay way, I gotta bring him back, I gotta bring him back from the gay way, so I'm do that through subterfuge, I'm gonna dress like a man. All right? That is how she approaches it. Okay, now let me just ask you--I'm gonna digress for two seconds here. I met this girl Amy here, she's like floating around here and everything. Now, she just got divorced, right?...All right, but the REAL ending of the movie is when they fight the MIGs at the end, all right? Because he has passed over into the gay way. They are this gay fighting fucking force, all right? And they're beating the Russians, the gays are beating the Russians. And it's over, and they fucking land, and Iceman's been trying to get Maverick the entire time, and finally, he's got him, all right? And what is the last fucking line that they have together? They're all hugging and kissing and happy with each other, and Ice comes up to Maverick, and he says, "Man, you can ride my tail, anytime!" And what does Maverick say? "You can ride mine!" Swordfight! Swordfight! Fuckin' A, man!

What I want to know is.. Is Maverick's ego still writing checks his body can't cash?

"Way to fly, Doug" comes a close second to "nobody puts baby in the corner" for the worst spoken line in the history of cinema.

And for pure win, Iron Eagle II takes it simply for Gedrick's whiny ass character getting smoked in the first 3 minutes of the film.

CHAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
