With no acting credits after 1995 (and never directed, never produced), it's a fair assumption she retired from acting.
And, sure, Hollywood sucks when it comes to casting older women, even though older men continue to be leading men. Recently, there was the absence of Kelly McGillis in the nostalgia-fest that was Top Gun: Maverick, even though she has worked sporadically over the last seven years. While McGillis admitted she didn't look the part, such would not be likely for Eilbacher who was an avid bodybuilder and likely has kept in shape. Be that as it may, it would appear the producers of BVC:AF simply may have put enough effort into coaxing her back to rejoin the gang.
Unless anyone knows something I couldn't find searching the interweb...?

Not much news since she retired in 1996.
Videoclip - An Officer and a Gentleman DVD doc.
Here she is on instagram in 2015 from this article.
Perhaps she'll make a cameo appearance?
