2,871 TacticalBaguette  4.9 years ago

The F-14 Tomcat is one of the most famous fighter aircraft of all time, heavily featured in the movie Top Gun, the F-14 was immediately a favorite aircraft of many. The only remaining operator of the F-14 is Iran. As far as I am aware, there are no flying Tomcats in North America, however many are in good condition as museum pieces. VTOL for swing wing, 1 for hook, and 2 to launch all Interceptor missiles
