F-14 Tomcat: History, Performance & Discussion

The AIM-120A uses a data link, but it appears that this is not the case when mounted on the F-14.

Spoiler


As you can see, the AIM-120 tested on the F-14 was tested only in STT mode. If the F-14 supported a data link for the AIM-120, it would have been tested in TWS mode as well, just like other aircraft.

Still provided no source that proves the opposite.
The 14D having link 16 only gives more of a hint to it being capable of datalink with the Aim-7p not the opposite

Well that was fast,

Still no source, I think that would help to share.
How do we know it acts as the 7MH? Because the keep telling us lol GG’s I guess. For now we just take their word for it

It’s mean it can’t DL?

Still a lofting AIM-7M would’ve been great

God then F-14D wouldn’t get 7P. I think now this a real problem now.

The 7M in game already has Lofting,
Gaijin gave it to it a Few Years back when F-15A and F-16A were added to better compete with the 27ER
Gaijin just being lazy never bothered to change the Designation from 7M to 7MH

Does it? Not the 1st time I’m hearing that about AIM-7M but it doesnt seem to loft in game

I promise you it does,
Now is it as aggressive as like let’s say an AMRAAM or other ARH no
But it does loft

But I think they should add AIM-7P to F-14. It’s a final variant of the Sparrow and well be compare with R-27ER.

Wouldnt add much but still a nice detail even if not really functional.

I guess they can make its use a DL just like that they add r-73 and R-27ER to YAK-141 and Iran the can use DL with R-27R. And AIM-7P can launch on F-14 platform clearly.

Additionally, whenever ANY document is posted, the user MUST provide its declassification status. Failure to post this information will also get you banned.

C+ should be able to use all-aspect PD, but I need to find that source and add it to my existing report. Apart from the ECCM, which won’t be implemented immediately, it would be a very distinctive feature from the baseline AIM-54C.
