Someone says something factual
You: Nuh uh
Me: calls you out for it
You: immediately resorts to fallacy
You’re so easy. This is why I slowly see how the dead internet theory could be true.

The fallacy i resorted to was your logic, and that was so i could show how fallacious your logic was and clearly you got it proving yourself wrong
No need for long arguments, eat your loss.
You’ll never guess where I got my questions’ logic from.

feel free to make a validable logic equation
or, just stop and agree that the logic you used doesn’t support your argument
Are the wing pylons modelled wrong on the F-14A and F-14B?
As depicted in the game, the fin of the AIM-54 would hit the fin of the AIM-9 upon release.
But we can see that the fins are actually farther apart in real life.

Gaijin’s 3D model for the F-14, Su-27, and others are awful.

The F-14D Manual was leaked somewhere on the forums. I don’t know where or why it’s so overhyped right now, but this has inspired me to fill out an MDR (Mandatory Declassification Review) request.
In the best-case scenario, we get the full F-14D document plus the redacted Chapters detailing everything about its weapons and avionics.

It’s not been “leaked”, it is available on Google. Just doesn’t mean it is permissible here ATM.
Good luck 👍

Interesting finds. Book name = Grumman F-14 Tomcat - Aero Series 25
This is interesting because not only is this clearly not modeled ingame (to my knowledge anyways), but it’s also the same parameters that the F-14B/D gain thrust from ~28,000 → ~30,300 pounds of thrust.

Possibly has grounds for a bug report. This doc was made in 1975, btw.

2.6 is insane, and hard to believe

2 Tomcat Crews have claimed Mach 2.5 speeds. Both said they could’ve pushed it further if they didn’t have to return to the carrier. I say it’s plausible.

Not really. It’s likely the numbers they saw in the cockpit though unconfirmed by ground controllers. Don’t forget the Boeing development director that made statements of Mach 2.9 in F-15s until he had to retract his statements.

In theory, if the conditions are juuuuust right and the plane has literally nothing on it and is optimized for drag like the streak eagle it’s possible but not sustainable or safe.

Oh definitely not safe or sustainable.And if it’s not confirmed by an external source it could just as easily be inaccuracies in instruments.
Gotta love seeing appearances from the F401 every once in awhile. Oh what could’ve been… (had PW not been a bunch of dorks and actually made both the early F100s and F401 reliable enough, which I’m still kinda pissed about lol)

Imagine the PW-229 on the Tomcat… Whew boy. Easy supercruise, Mach 2.4+, way lighter frame and components, etc…

The F-401 was destined to fail from the start, the initial F-100 engine setup favored the F-15, and the Navy did not want to sponsor the necessary changes to the F-401
probably F-110-GE-429 then
