After being put in the spot by a bar full of navy pilots, Kelly McGuinness is propositioned by Tom Cruise, and politely declines. Instead of accepting that, Tom later enters the ladies bathroom where Kelly is “doing her makeup”. This was triggering for my partner due to the rapey “don’t take no for an answer” cultural cringe.

No, although Goose's death does involve a head injury. There's blood, but he's wearing a helmet and no gore is shown. Head does not appear to be squashed.

They are technically in the hospital, but you don't see any treatment, only characters in the waiting room interacting with each other, not medical personnel.

In the interest of warning everyone at every sensitivity level, there is a black pilot whose call sign (nickname) is Sundown, which is pretty racist.

Debatable. The protagonist's best friend dies in a training accident but this occurs well before the end of the movie. Everyone else gets a happy ending.

Not in the traditional sense, although fighter pilots shooting both guns and missiles at other aircraft is a central theme.
