The rest of the cast also round out the production exceptionally well, despite the slight shortcomings of the script that made Flight of the Intruder a slight side-note in the history of aerial war films.
However, there is still a lot of quality here, particularly for aviation enthusiasts, as its depiction of the Vietnam War aircraft, like the A-6 Intruder and Douglas Skyraider, put front and center for a lot of the action (Hot Shots! even took footage from the film).
