    This is incorrect; take it directly from the movie’s editor, Eddie Hamilton ACE, on how the VFX CGIs were done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE1pOMpQvbw You can see at the 4 minutes mark where the actual jets in the movie were just stand ins, and VFX artists are told to use CGI to reskin them with the jets in the final movie.

      That is the Russian and F-14. I already acknowledged those two were CGI. We don’t have access to an SU-57, and they are not flying F-14 anymore.

      The F-18 are real planes with the send seat edited out.
