Overview

By Lou Drendel
The F-14 Tomcat is a supersonic, twin-engine, variable sweep
wing, two-place fighter designed to attack and destroy enemy
aircraft at night and in all weather conditions. The F-14 can
track up to 24 targets simultaneously with its advanced weapons
control system and attack six with Phoenix AIM-54A missiles while

continuing to scan the airspace. Armament also includes a mix of
other air intercept missiles, rockets, and bombs. The Grumman
F-14 Tomcat has retired after over 30 years of service. It was
the final member of a family of Grumman cats which began almost
seventy years ago. This book presents a personal narrative of the

testing and operational use of the Tomcat. More than 150 color
photographs, color paintings, and color profiles; 64 pages.
