its not
MiG-25 and Sturmtiger would not fit as normal vehicles due to their large deficiencies in certain areas
F-14 has no major defficiency, and would work as a normal vehicle very well
neither is explicitly an upgrade to the other they just work different ways, all the f14s should be able to pick between the two really
a nice idea, but i think personally anymore F-14 additions are pretty unlikely. F-14A / B / D already covers a lot of ground that the others won’t really fulfil
it would fit warthunder a lot better for the same reason the fakour does over the base aim 54
Would you be able to pass the consideration as feedback for a future techtree “F-14D (late)”?
This way the premium could stay as is, but in the future it won’t be the most capable F-14 locked outside of the techtree.

I mean so did the Mig-29s then they added one as a squadron vic their’s also the JAS-39D they didn’t need to add as a squadron vic which they did
The F-14D we’re getting is just another B, it doesn’t count. We can still get an actual F-14D with good missiles
We could have had either:
- An upgraded F-14A
- F-14B(U)
- F-14D(R)
as a premium F-14 with the F-14D with AIM-9M, AIM-7P, and better AIM-54C in the TT.
The issue of it being “too similar to the F-14B” is completely Gaijin’s own fault.
(I know you’re a suggestion mod and not a dev or CM but still it’s got to be said).

his point was people had been wanting it for ages, plus its not like those two are the only examples, tog2 wouldve been fine in tech tree, bmd-4 was stuck as an event vehicle for years before it got a TT variant. etc
difference is, Sweden didn’t really have a lot of options (same reason for JA37DI i assume), MiG-29M was a decent upgrade to the tt MiG-29s and the only (?) 13.7 MiG-29 w/ 8 A2A Hardpoints. The F-14A+ would have AMRAAMs and maybe 9Ms, another F-14D (Late) would just be AIM-54C+ and 9Ms maybe.
I just don’t think it’d be a good option considering the potential of American Air Squadron vehicles anyways

that’s the thing we should have the 14A at least get 9ls the B and D should get 9m that way they are usable at top tier
in the dev blog it said it doesn’t get 9M

that Should be is very unlikely to be reached tho
It will get the MiG-29 Sniper treatment and get none of the Armarments that make it special which will make it sell a lot less then it could’ve
omg it only mentioned the 9l, hopefully this is an accident because it would be really funny if the f14B and D both dont get their irccm missiles in game ever
If you love the Tomcat so much maybe add its actual weapons and confirm IRST/TCS will work if you are charging us $80, which is more than most AAA games

I’d be seriously surprised if they do get the 9M
it doesn’t even get 9P either
there’s really nothing going for it that would warrant the Purchase
who knows if theirs two one tech one premium maybe the premium gets only 9ls while tech tree gets m’s
