Continuity mistake: Due to Rooster's slow flying in the bombing run at first, the first pair of planes has a huge lead - in the sequence of the film, 60 seconds at "bombs away" and only 25 seconds at hitting the mountain ridge. Anyway, they could not possibly be together again fighting against the SAMs, with Maverick ultimately saving Rooster. Each pair would have to fight on their own.

Continuity mistake: When Maverick calls Comanche, the sun is behind the Daggers. When they descend below radar a few seconds later, the sun is ahead of them. (01:31:16)
