How would the F14D perform in War thunder?

How would the F14D do in war thunder? The F14D super tomcat was the final advanced variation of the F14.
The armament I could find was
Aim-9 (pretty much all variants)
Aim 120 Amram (prototype)
Aim 54 A and C
Aim 7 M and P models
If they ever added the Super tomcat 21 model it would have fly by wire capabilities, more fuel efficient engines, better avionics, radar and IRST systems. The Super tomcat 21 would probably not be added so the best bet would be the F-14D by itself. It would probably be added into the Folder F14 variants aswell. (I can’t finish this it is too late at night for ts)

@ItzMikeyzWRLD-psn would know a lot about this stuff lol
but, IRL it was limited to this stuff

Up to 9m in service irl. 9x is compatible but didn’t use it in service.

not on production f-14ds in service. It was compatible with a software upgrade but didn’t get it on production f-14ds.

and aim 54c eccm/sealed

yeah

it basically be what the way better F/A-18C likely around 13.0 because at 13.3 it be facing rafales

probably handle similar to the F15A

its slightly heavier than the b model with the same engines. gonna be a slightly worse 14b

FM wise yes but avionics weapons wise miles better only slightly worse FM wise

Handles like the F-15A with Aim-9M and Aim-120A?

Compared to say Tornado F3 Late with 4x Aim-9M and 4x Aim-120B. The F-14D would be better in a dogfight. It would easily be 13.3 or maybe even 13.7 material. Especially if you consider the F-14B with Aim-9L and Aim-54 is already 13.0

Yep, including the 9X according to Raytheon.

The Aim-54A was not available for use on the F-14D. It’s removal of the coolant made any other Phoenix variant except for the Aim-54C+ ECCM/Sealed unviable to use.

That folder is already filled with the F-14A (Early) and F-14B. The much more likely situation is that they add Rank 9, and the F-14D, Superhornet, etc… are added as the US naval fighters for Rank 9.

probably wont have AIM-120A just the AIM-7-P since it doesnt have the software in active service so it would be a slightly better F15A due to stronger radar and a stronger AIM-7P

is there a limit of foldered vehicles? i dont see a reason why it wont be foldered, there’s plenty of 3 vehicle folders

where does it say 9x is integrated on the f-14d? am i blind?

only mention of the 14d i can see is when it talks about experience designing its radar
