kind of a necessary evil for stealth testing. I would much rather have them work out stealth issues and bugs with a gunless missileless light bomber than an air supremacy fighter

it would still have AIM-54A

early batches might not have gotten them immediately so im not 100% sure tho could probably be 12.3 tho with ammunition nerf

I’d love a Tomcat without Phoenixes. Huge fan of the flight model.

fun fact
the F-14A that is in game is still 12.3 in air sim

and the F-14B and F-14D are both at 12.7

the EFT of 13.0

I am not exactly sure if I want to loose steering radious, that is a major factor when engaging other tanks head on. I am split on this one, and favouring steering radious over regenrative mode.

In Arcade all F-14s are 12.3 lol

and there is the “funny” bug where you can get them to 12.0 in arcade iirc

No, the phoenix existed before the F-14 so it absolutely did have them and the capability to use them as soon as it entered service. Tomcat was built to shoot pheonixes

Also the F-14 gets dogged on by every other 4th gen at 13.0 lol how is it the EFT of 13.0.

You can thank fighter players and content creators crying that the match was finishing “Without us doing anything”. This was a playerbase pushed poor decision.

“Why did this match end so suddenly?”

Yep. Also killed off the attacker’s ability to progress the game state, likewise for bombers and a not insignificant number of interceptors.

when the F14B came out the only thing that came close was mirage 2000

not to mention irl it put belt on the F16 and F15
F 14 Tomcat Vs F 15 Eagle

a couple dogfights in an exercise, doesnt mean its better performance wise

things have changed a lot since then. i dont think its even top 5 flight performance aircraft that are 13.0 or can be uptiered to 13.0
