I don’t think it’s the last ones. There are still a couple more. Hopefully this ends before those get destroyed too

Unlikely. Those two aircraft had been parked there for two years. They’re probably just empty hulks whose parts are being used on other F-14s.

The reality is that we don’t even know in what condition those 14s are anymore…
Sure there was one at Kish Island Air Show 2024 , but that doesn’t really mean it’s in combat condition.
And given that Israelis didn’t find any opposition, i dare to say that they kept them flying (yes) but for show of strength and because they are known and historical aircraft (at this point) .
i don’t think think they are combat worthy…flying is one thing, combat is another…

Don’t worry I don’t think they destroyed all of them

Is it just me, or did they remove being able to switch STT locks from PD to SRC while staying locked on? I remember it was exclusive to the Tomcat/AWG-9…

It automatically does it for you, you can’t manually do it anymore. It’s been like that for like a year or 2 now

Not for the AWG-9 lol. I lose track when the target starts turning instantly… No SRC or anything.

yeah notch angles are super high for whatever reason higher than the F4J which has better radar for some reason

im pretty sure f-14/awg9 has like almost no notch angles when in look up

its PD doesnt work in rear aspect you gotta turn it off to lock in rear aspect but no PD means 1 chaff F4J can rear aspect with PD both have HDN PD but F4J is better for some reason

manual control of this removed for all jets long ago, auto only now

Just noticed they fixed ECM blisters at beaver tail for VF-74 Be-devilers skin.

B model also has many model/texture errors but, still good step for makes it correct more.

I was googling for some F-14 manuals and found an interesting book.

After reviewing multiple page fragments, found that most of the content is almost identical to that published in the original NAVAIR 01-F14AAA-1 from early/mid 1980s, which is still under of export control. This book may be be the closest secondary source to the primary source that is currently legally available.

This book has ISBN codes and You can find this documents easily from Amazon or somewhere and
available in every nation.

still waiting for F14D

To be honest i don’t anymore.
They will make it crap and i don’t want to see it because i’ll get angry…
not to mention they will make it BR 15.0 with overnerfed armament and people will still call it OP …
In general the idea of GJ even thinking my favorite planes … i don’t like it.

Also, for newer planes they don’t need NAVAIRs etc.
even if they get them they prefer the ^a…p…l^ source…!
