Grumman F-14D Super Tomcat - End of a Legendary Era

You’re right I’ve been playing the a too much the engine upgrade was the b

Isn’t it slightly worse since it’s heavier

Depends. If so, it’s so marginal enough that the difference can’t be shown in their performance charts, as both the B and D share them. And correct implementation of DFCS system will make the performance in AoA better anyways. That plus consistently getting best performance with the autoflaps will correctly make the F-14D the best F-14 dogfighter.

Hopefully, that is.

Yeah, either a premium or squadron vehicle for the F-14A late. Not only could it get those, but it could also get BOL, TCS, LANTIRN, LGBUs, and an enhanced RWR. I don’t think it could carry JDAMs though, so it’d be different from the F-14B in that way.


And an early 2000s livery would be cool too

those are some awesome photos.

Yep, the last of the last. Black Knights and Checkmates both retired their A models in '03-'04. Would love to see one of those in game.

I used to live near the NAF Atsugi until 2006, 154 and other squadrons belonging to CVW-5 were stationed there. Still remember CVW-5 returned to home from OIF in 2003.

I couldn’t see Freelancers sadly but, at the least I could see Navy model F-14As that was flyable even thought I live in outside of US.

Oh man… I really miss TF30 sounds.
