I’m not gonna make huge pointless arguments with someone in the f-14 thread
Not my problem if you dislike that
Simply, no.

Explain how the IRIAF is viable at 13.0 without the R-27R1 and Fakour-90.

Answering “no” means you don’t believe that because it holds no substance to you.

explain how the eurofighter is viable at 14.0 without amraams and the gun
you said it isn’t? ok. point proved, eurofighter needs to be moved down

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.
