National Geographic has greenlit a new docuseries that will go inside one of the U.S. Navy’s most demanding training and selection programs.
“Top Gun: The Next Generation” (working title) will follow a diverse group of student pilots as they train to become fighter pilots in the Advanced Flight Training Program. The group will embark on some of the most challenging flight tests, including landing on an aircraft carrier at sea.
