Description U.S. Navy's jet airplane designed specifically for air-to-air combat.
Facts Even 30 years after its maiden flight the F-14A Tomcat was one of the most powerful and efficient fighter-interceptors in the world. In particular its long-range capability and ability to attack targets, with its AIM-54 Phoenix missiles, which were way outside its range of sight, made it an ideal fleet defender.The F-14 Tomcat was developed as the successor to the Phantom II which had proved outdated in its fighter-interceptor role. Deliveries of the F-14A Tomcat to the US Navy operations units started in June 1972. The first unit was VF-124 stationed in NAS Miramar, which was also responsible for further pilot training. Engines: 2 x Pratt & Whitney TF 30-P-4 14A; capacity 2 x 9,852 kg thrust; max. speed 2,485 km/h
