Pre-Order: F-14D Super Tomcat

Now that the F-14B officially has AIM-9Ms, it’s not a stretch to hope for the AIM-7P next. If Gaijin is worried about keeping the F-14D unique, a solid compromise would be changing the preorder pack from a Super Tomcat to an F-14B(U) instead. (Funny timing too with DCS literally just dropping their B(U) trailer.)

That would give the premium/preorder Tomcat a meaningful upgrade over the tech tree B, while leaving plenty of room for a full F-14D in the main tree later. We managed to get them to add the 9M, so hopefully we can push for the 7P too. Or honestly… just give the AIM-7P to the current F-14B already for the love of God.

Topic about AIM-7P every one. I think we should do a POLL about AIM-7P too.

They just need to fix AIM-54C and implement 54C+ with the upgrades. Then the plane will be ok at 13.0 (14B) and 13.3 (14D).
Fix their speed, G-overload and radar. The it will be fine.
7P even if it could use DL, would be pretty secondary if you had realistic 54Cs. Without the DL , 7P Block 2 would be a very good addition, since it was a better missile over 7M/M-H anyway, especially when they bring ECM to the game.

really? And what would you call that? F-14 non-Gaijined D version? F-14 -what it was supposed to be- D?
A bit confused on the would-be designation.

I think in TT should be F-14D Block1.

Isn’t this one a Block 1?
I think it has GBU-31/38 guided with GPS…
I don’t know what are they doing really…

Your take on the F-14 airframe just proves you have zero understanding of jet dogfighting — you’re just another clown who only knows how to spam missiles.

You’re flying an overpowered pre-order Su-30MK and still managed to get beaten by an F-14 in a dogfight. That says everything.

In reality, the Su-30MK completely outclasses the F-14A and F-14B in flight performance. If both pilots are at a similar skill level, the F-14 loses the dogfight 100% of the time.

You’re the one relying on missiles, not anyone else.

AIM-54C+ on the dev server;

Currently looks like just a name change, but its a step in the right direction

How is 54s loadout limitation?

irl F-14D doesn’t have Station3/6 loadout limits like F-14A/B but, not sure Gaijin modeled it

Hahahahahhaahhaah. And maybe some new gamemode for Ground RB outside of “drive onto a point to capture it”?

Hahahahaha, no. That would actually be fun. And even if Gaijin somehow makes something fun, like Nuclear Thunder, they will then drag it to the ground with several “fixes” that ruin it completely.

@Zulizia would it be possible to reopen these reports as suggestions for AIM-7P that lacks DL functionality but retains IOG?

That way we could keep both F-14B and F-14D equal in armament while giving them an extra edge in air to air.

Nope, we just handle suggestions on this forum. Anything passed as a suggestion on the Bug Reporting website (eg weaponry) is part of the dev’s internal suggestions, not ours.
