Excerpt:




























China's state broadcaster is facing questions after Internet users spotted that footage in a report on air force manoeuvres in a national newscast was taken from the 1980s Hollywood film "Top Gun".









China Central Television or CCTV, aired the footage in a January 23 report on a People's Liberation Army Air Force training exercise, showing a plane firing a missile at another.











The second aircraft plane was destroyed in a fiery explosion, and the dramatic footage was shown in between interviews with air force officers.











However, some Internet users recognised the explosion from the dogfight in the final scene of the 1986 film "Top Gun" starring Tom Cruise.










Edit:  First comment "China, your ego is writing checks your country can't cash"

Government propaganda contains lies?  NO WAY.

Next you'll tell me that 24 or CSI or the other thousand cop shows aren't real.

So they are seemingly admitting their dog-fighting tactics are 25 years behind us?

Their entire dogfighting program is based off of Top Gun.  Wonder who they sub for Kelly?
