The Tomcat is still the most gorgeous fighter bird ever made, sad that it was retired in US Navy.
Agreed
i guess I'm kinda randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to watch new series online?
@Landon Jay Flixportal :)
@Gibson Abel Thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D Appreciate it !!
@Landon Jay happy to help :)
the best era ever❤️ without smartphone, nor social media❤️
Met this nice gentleman when I was an awestruck kid. I'm an awestruck adult now and proud to have met him.
By far my favorite fighter jet. So sexy and attractive. Top gun is what sparked my love for this jet. Love it and am so sad it was retired
I agree fully!!!
Never lost a dog fight in nearly 40 years of its service. That says everything about this phenomenal fighter.
Sooooooort of.... neither has a cessna 172.
@@Zander10102 WTF? F-14 is a fighter that actually was involved in air combat during the cold war and many other wars including the gulf wars.
@@KLRGT500KR You're absolutely correct! It isn't a fair comparison, but it isnt really meant to be. The point I'm making is that never losing a dogfight kinda has limited meaning, or I guess conditional meaning. It's conditional based on how much action it saw and what the circumstances tended to be.
@@Zander10102 Well, then I know a lot more than you. It has seen a lot of air combat during the 36 years it was in service. I have many books on it. At the line of death during the 80s, there were dogfights with MIGs happening almost daily, but due to the Reagan ROE, they were not allowed to shoot the MIGs that were intercepted over the line of death. The F-14s were locking MIGs up over international waters at every occasion they were being aggressively turned into by the MIGs simply because they never gave the opportunity to the MIGs to open fire on them first.

Very Cool!!!! I wish that they were still in the Navy inventory.... One of the best fighters ever made...
It's a true joy to see this magnificent aircraft doing aerial ballet.
If anyone is interested, you can fly these things in DCS World, a reeeeally awesome and surprisingly accurate fighter jet simulator, and engage other figures and ground targets as well. Planes (modules as they're called in the game) have to be purchased, and the Tomcat is one of the most expensive ones, because two people can operate it obviously. As of this year, both the F-14A and B models are available, when you buy the B the A comes with it, with the only real difference being the engines. The A's had the TF-30s, but the B's have the awesome, compressor stall-less General electric F110's. The simulator itself is free to download, but like I said, you have to pay for the modules and you would have to buy a HOTAS (hands on throttle and stick) to effectively fly it, but it ABSOLUTELY worth it. There is nothing, and I mean nothing like getting launched off a carrier, splashing a couple of Mig-29 from around 50 miles away using the AIM54 Phoenix missiles, then rearming and refueling and doing it all again. My father served on the USS John F Kennedy CV67, before i was born, and the Tomcat was both our favorite plane and when I saw DCS on CZcams, I HAD to do it. Check it out on CZcams if you want to experience it in its glory!
Even if it would be only a stunt plane, it's one of the most beautiful feats of airplane engineering ever to be made. The wing sweep mechanism is gorgeous. You can see the atmospheric difference when this thing maneuvers at speed.
My favorite fighter, I love this plane!!!
Got to see one demo at a 1990 or 91 airshow in Chattanooga. Wonderful.
An interesting fact: The F-14 in limit testing did 9.5g at mach 1.2 at 20,000 feet and did 8g at mach 0.9 below 10,000 feet.
Yeah and went through 3 weeks of over stress inspections. Good times there.
@@bryantsalmon2 Several cats went above 10 G's without a single sign of damage. The aircraft was tested to 13 G's by Grumman without any elastic deformation. Don't get fooled by the 6.5 G peace time limit, this bird was built to take just as many G's as an F-15 or F-16.
bellator11 Awesome !
I like the Tomcat A better just because of the Engine Nozzles btw.
The improved ones just look generic ,
Don’t remember which was louder , but more importantly which ones sounded Cooler ? =D
@@mrandrossguy9871 Shame the F14A had the dog shit "TF30" engines that were far too easily prone to compressor stalls as well as lacking the power the air frame really needed to show it's best.
Damian
GE F-110 nozzles Still we’re boring, Same as F-16 and f-18
This was my childhood plane as I saw more F-14s than any other jet including passenger jets when I was growing up!
i can watch this again and again and again...
Great video. Miss the Tomcat. :(
Bring this beast Back💪💪💪the F14 tomcat❤
god i love this airplane
The F-14 is the most beautiful aircraft ever built. Period.
We had the technology to build this in 1970!
definitely my favorite American jet that's final i been thinking it over and this one my favorite enough said.
One of most beautiful plane!
This is GOLD. thanks
Lt. Michaels’s callsign: “WHAM”
IYKYK.
Awesome
“I was inverted.”
bullshit
We.
Coughs* "Bullshit." 😉
Still a formidable plane! IRIAF a real threat to any foe! I wish U.S. still had them! Just a big beautiful bird! Former ABH3 V1 Div Crash and Salvage!
Well spoken in that last part
TF30's had close to 42k Thrust Max...and probably More in Emergency situations and HIGH altitude...35, is either, He's not the Sharpest Claw on the Tomcat, or the engines were detuned or not alllowed at full thrust for reliability and longevity.
How do you spell sexy in the navy: F-14 Tomcat
A piece of Art and Technology too early put down by Cheney's burocracy!
I had no idea the wings could change their sweep angle
Tomcat is beautiful
This video just makes me sad that I will never see my favorite plane fly again...unless I go to Iran...and that's not gonna happen.

So upset when I heard they retired her like WTF ?!!
Not even for Airshows is Bullshit which plainly says Government was jealous of it
You probably hit the nail on the head... Surely, one of the best fighter aircraft that was ever made.... It was Dick Cheney as the Secretary of Defence, who put an end to this amazing program... Probably because he had other associates who were involved with building other aircraft and weapons systems, that were having trouble competing with the F-14 and it's SUPERIOR weapons systems... So with the stroke of a pen, Dick lived up to his name, and killed the best fighter jet ever produced.... Later , Dangerous Dick accidentally shot one of his partners on a hunting trip, with a shotgun.... Remember , this is the same guy who decided on several key issues, to keep our country save, from enemy attacks... Too bad he was not properly trained to handle a shotgun... Maybe Jed Clampett (Buddy Ebson) could have given him a gun-safety course, to ensure the safety of people near this un-trained yet-armed , former 'Secretary of Defence'.... How he got to where he was, I don't know.
I miss people from this era..
They're still around.
@@THE-BUNKEN-DRUM They might be.. but they have changed..
@WOTM8 : They haven't changed (for the most part). It's everyone else that's been born since that has changed & not entirely for the better, IMO.
@@THE-BUNKEN-DRUM Oh they have bro... political correctness changed people.
3:00 I've been looking for videos of tomcat wings moving for years and I finally fuckin found it
at 2:49 the instructor tells us a little tale ... the nozzle is closed to increase speed, and not to increase pressure! sure he knows ... and: good video!
Ahhh listen to it again he says it increases pressure to increase thrust and thus increasing speed....
Its wings make it look like a bird (especially when swept)
Pilot is like, "I fly plane..." while RIO is like, "Lemme tell you about..."
The Navy still had f-14’s with the PW TF-30 engines in 1997? I thought the entire fleet had the GE engines put in around 89.
the f18 is good too but I wish they still use this
The F-14 Tomcat outperforms the F/A-18 Super Hornet in almost every way.
Great vids 🤜
Its def a cool old bird but towards the end of its service it was a maintenance nightmare.
I never saw it fly at a show.
Awesome! 👍
Thanks! 👍
I'm sorry their is just no fighters this cool anymore..
Very Nice!! 🤑🤑
Anyone recognise the watch the RIO is wearing? Some sort of ana-digital
I’m not into the F-35C or the Super hornet. (They are still cool though) This right here is my type.
This has got the be 1 of the most dirty F14s ever
TOP GUN
It sounded like he said. “I’m LT.buttholetool”
mach speed indicator air data computer....as i was a fellow pc
Was this a TF30? I thought only the early ones had those engines.
Yes, it's an A model. The Navy wasn't given the funds it was initially promised to upgrade the whole Tomcat fleet. So many Tf30 A models operated all the way until its retirement.
Great video. where was this airshow filmed? Looks like a NY area code
+pscans1234 It was definitely in NY. The National Warplane Museum is located in Geneseo, NY, but that is a grass airstrip. Many of the early shows were held there. There was a show or two in Batavia, NY at the airport, but I believe that this show was held at the airport in Elmira, NY. (It's getting hard to remember ;-))
pscans1234 That was
pscans1234 That was filmed in Elmira ny when they moved from Genesseo. Well some of the museum moved. The rest stayed in Genesseo
F-14B or A?
He mentioned the TF-30 so it's an A
Bud O'Toole and George Michaels. Riiiiiiiiiiiiight. Seems legit.
tf30p414 pw motors
This engine sucked, the TF1100 was a huge improvement.
GE-110-400*
i think the exact weight is over exaggerated
"30 tons of airplane!!!!"
The TF30 engines were garbage , the general electric GE110 replacements were way better
🗿
Mut eat da
멋있다
High maintenance saltwater seaplane. Overrated by hollywood hype.
Those rubbish TF30 engines let it down.must have been a different beast when they installed the F110
Wait... my hearing and my closed captions i believe didn't catch the pilots full name. Is his name Butt O'tool ? 🫢
