Storyline
After his bombardier is killed, Jake "Cool Hand" Grafton (Brad Johnson)', a carrier-based Intruder pilot, questions the purpose of Navy bombing missions. He finds an ally for his cynicism in Virgil Cole, a bombardier on his third tour of duty, and together they ponder the notion of one unsanctioned mission "downtown", to "Sam City" in North Vietnam.

Trivia
It took multiple takes to do the scene in the ready room where Guffy (Douglas Roberts) urinates in the coffee cup, the ship had a fire and a medical emergency in that same area about twenty minutes apart that disrupted the filming. Both the fire and medical emergency were involving the film crew. See more »Goofs
During the briefing while Commander Camparelli is talking about the "Phantom", an officer in the front row is drinking a Pepsi from a can with a tapered top and a UPC bar code. In 1972 a Pepsi can was more cylindrical and had no bar code. See more »Quotes

When I saw this movie for the first time it seemed like Deja vu. the first part of the movie was like I was reliving a part of my life when I was aboard the Aircraft Carrier U.S.S. Saratoga (CV-60) in 1985. The ship in the movie was the U.S.S. Independence (CV-62) and it's the same ship in design as the Saratoga. When I was on that ship a pilot died suddenly when his A-7 exploded on approach and it was caused by a bomb arming and exploding on its own. We had an memorial service at the same place on the ship and it really blew my mind. From then on I have admired that movie and have watched it several times. To this day I get really choked up. Hey, it's not as well made as the Godfather but it isn't a bad movie either. But I feel it deserves better then a 5.3. Hey veterans out there, start voting.
