I would have hoped my avgeek cred here would have carried my post through (fully aware of the lack of a two seat F-35). We did get a couple of shots on the carrier of some F-35's, that was cool.
They could have mentioned wanting to use them to support Maverick's team, and then give us another throwback to the original that the catapults broke down before they could launch them after the 18's launched.
