You just need more money.
"I'm pretty sure if I had a million bucks, I could hook that up!"
It might take more than a million for some of your stuff, especially where the Navy is concerned.
There is a place where you can fly a plane in a dogfight. It used to be in Houston, but it's moved.
And I think there's a couple/few places where you can drive various race cars, including dragsters. You could probably get close to the jet from a carrier experience in a dragster and then get the aircraft portion of the experience
I think this is the place that used to be based out of Houston.

I did something like that back when COTA opened and had the first USGP there. They had 3 seat F1 cars from 2008 or 2009. It was very impressive. It was actually so cool, that I did it a second time.
