The OAV series never really finished, the TV series didn't finish, the American importation of the manga never finished. Granted, if there was an American adaptation it would likely make Mick Simon the hero and have Shin Kazama's story a subplot, but that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
And do what exactly? It doesn't carry weapons. It doesn't carry paratroopers. It can't even defend itself in hostile airspace.
Airborne divisions aren't exactly on call 24/7 like Ambulances or Fire & Rescue teams. You watched too many G.I.Joe cartoons as a boy.
This is as old as Eisenstein.
Captain Jack, your car is here.
Speeder Bike? You're doing it wrong.
Or the Leonard Maltin scene, in which he's attacked while giving his negative review on the FIRST Gremlins movie?
The Blue Angels DID have A-4s in the Seventies. Just not these particular A-4s.

BUBBA: Haven't you heard of Missiles Я Us?
One of the later episodes of MAX HEADROOM also had a scene that was shot in monochrome and then colorized after the fact.

I want to say ENEMY ACE and PHANTOM EAGLE, but they aren't exactly "duplicates". Nor are UNKNOWN SOLDIER and NICK FURY. I'm kind of lacking here.
It's a shame you can't go to an airport just to hang out and watch the planes like you could in past decades. Last time I tried, an Airport Authority cop pulled his revolver on me and frisked me in the parking lot.
There was a piece in the news this week about thermoptic contact lenses. Cybernetic display contact lens units now don't seem so farfetched.
Ahti Lahti. I'm a menu item at a chintzi hipster coffeehouse.
It's dated but it hit me at the right time when it came out. And if there's anybody I would want to play the role of me in a biopic, it would be Glen Boudin.
