  • The latest F-14B in War Thunder is an absolute MONSTER for when it comes to CAS! Although it carries a limited amount of guided munitions, it's still enough to bully even the most experienced of SPAA players!

      The primary reason for CAS being on the defensive recently is due to the Pantsir and, arguably, the Tor. Outside of that, CAS has performed reasonably the same, imo.

As someone who has the F 14B, the F 16, and the Mig 29, I enjoy the Mig 29 most in air battles. If you are a ground player, definitely go for the new Tomcat.

      None of them have LGBs m8. They have Mavericks, Walleyes and GBUs which are all TV guided.
      Only the TRAM and the Bombcat have LGBs in the US tree currently.

    Hey Justin as you said yourself you are not an Air player so you wouldn’t understand why we need missiles such as the R-73, Aim-9M…etc in ground RB it’s nearly impossible to see a missile either from the ground or air but in Air RB totally different story

    In RL the F-14D was nicknamed "Bombcat" because this version was optimized for precision ammunitions (not the (B) model )

      nope. the F-14B was also called the Bombcat.

    • @dovahkiin3526

      The B model was indeed called the Bombcat, because the B variant was the first of the series to be equipped with guided munitions

    The F14B is in such a pathetic state right now. TWS is broken, missiles that won’t come off the rails when you have a perfect lock, missiles that wildly miss the target despite the most optimal launch parameters, missiles that self destruct when they shouldn’t, IR missiles that simply fall off the rails and into the ground…
    It’s so frustrating to have been looking forward to playing for so long only to have everything be broken once I finally have it.
