F-14 Tomcat: History, Performance & Discussion

its still objectively pretty bad at 12.7 especially considering how often it goes to 13.0 and 13.3. i mean you start with AIM-9D’s and AIM-54A’s, fighting multiple AESA planes and modernized flankers. at 12.7 it should have AIM-9L and the F-14B should have AIM-9M’s

the heat signature of the SUN compels the R73 into you

it just feels like it could be such a fun plane to fly but its loadout/lack of many many features/stuff it has to deal with make it awful

its probably orders of magnitude cheaper, its probably so expensive that even the US would have a kneejerk reaction.

It has a primary source on the hawk which is what the Sedjil is

have you guys been getting TKed an unusual amount of times in the F-14A Early?

yeah but the FAKOUR-90 is a AIM-54 not a HAWK all is a swapped motor

Here it is in case anyone wants to support it, it’s small issue but would be a very welcomed fix

I’d like to see the NK101 (2004) spec for VF-31 implemented, but I wonder if Felix’s rights or something like that might prevent it from happening?

God I hope we get vx-9
