Well, that's vague... 

Are they remaking the 2001 Star Wars game by the same title?  Adapt one of the starfighter-specific games?  Just doing a story about fighter pilots?

Apparently, this is the Ryan Gosling movie, that takes place 5 years after Rise of Skywalker. I'm going to guess some sort of fighter-pilot movie, but who knows?

Ah, ok.  I guess credit for finally getting off the dime and moving the story forward a bit?

There are certainly worse ideas than Top Gun: a Star Wars Story.  With that timeframe it sounds like a refreshingly Jedi-free narrative, which is enough to pique my interest.

Will we get some original, and hopefully good, new fighter designs?

"Good" is wholly subjective... but it's a fair question nevertheless.

Disney was still leaning on the familiar OT designs or variations thereof through the end of the sequel trilogy.  My (cynical) assumption would be that they would continue to lean on the same designs to minimize risk (based on the new movie being set only a short time after the sequel trilogy) and save a new design for a major event like a new trilogy.  Maybe they'll dust off an old design as "new" the way they did for Ahsoka's first season.

Well, this is promising:

“This is a stand-alone. It’s not a prequel, not a sequel. It’s a new adventure. It’s set in a period of time that we haven’t seen explored yet,” said Levy. He added that production starts this fall.
