  • Why did we sell these f14's to Iran again?? Be a shame to shoot these birds down when we need to..

  • @Tetra84

    When the Shah (King) of Iran was in power he was friendly with the western world and wanted an aircraft capable of intercepting a MiG 25. He wisely chose the Tomcat.

    USA obliged and sold him what he wanted

    When the Shah was overthrown in 1979 - things changed for the worse! because the new regime had no love for the western world. It was all downhill from there!

  • we are ready to fight with us.uk.___Israeel___ Don't forgate iran is coming

  • No matter how much Iran hates the US, your F-14s were originally made in USA.

  • Iranian defense minister said they have upgreated the radar on F14 and the upgreated the phoenix missile with new modern digital systems .

    The Iranian F14 is not the F14 of the 70s

  • Comment removed

  • Damn, the U.S. Airforce chopped up all our F-14s. Guess I'll have to steal an Iranian one.

  • tomcats are outdated. a great plane none the less. they fulfilled their service. they were getting old. the wear and tear of landing on a carrier made keeping them around expensive for the navy. i still wish we had them, but soon we'll have the F-35 and the iranians will wish they never rebelled. we will take iran sooner or later. ahmedinejad will eat shit. the people of iran will be free. and not under some bullshit shah

  • @chillaxer1993 So... that is the american spirit

    'We will take iran sooner or later'

    Then you guys complain about others starting wars.

    You guys truly deserve one hundred billion Nukes up in your ass.

    The world is FUCKING SICK of you, SICK.

    From Spain.

  • Man, it sucks we're gonna have to shoot all these down.

    I'd consider them mercy killings. RIP Tomcats

  • @torquethrust Don't worry, they will crash before there is any war.

  • @torquethrust tell me about it. Iran is a bunch of sticks and stones compared to america. im half iranian and i know that. nobody fucks with america.

  • @spanish111japan From the country that had the inquisition. Yup, your the picture of kindness.

  • @Joesolo13 So.. By being Spanish you admit you think i support the inquisition.

    Bravo for the intelligence.

  • @spanish111japan No, you said that all of us americans deserve to be killed by nukes because of how some of the government acts, so I compared you to a small number of other spanish that did something wrong too. See why generlisation is bad?

  • @Joesolo13 Wrong. I did not say ALL americans, if i did so, prove it.

    Understanding things is importang brother.

  • @spanish111japan You said "the American spirit" which means the attitude behind all of us.

  • @Joesolo13 Not all Americans have american spirit. That's why

  • @spanish111japan And not all spanish people were part of the inquisition

  • @Joesolo13 You are now contradicting yourself

  • @spanish111japan How so?

  • @Joesolo13 Now confusing me too

  • @chillaxer1993 Dude iranian people free themselfs from USA 1979!!! did you now that in Teheran lives 80 000 jews with full rights, they can even vote in elections. these F-14 Tomcats are in perfect condition, their apg-9 radar still have 213km of detecton range, aim 54 phoenix missile are very dangerous! tomcat is old but it can last next 20 years!!! US replaced them because some fat asshole from lokid martin lobby in congress for F35 just so he can put more money in his pocket

  • Looks like a American made F-14.

  • @MOJONIXION Yep. They are.

  • @VGAUbersoldat Is Tom Cruse the pilot? LOL

  • perhaps the US will put back intoo service a similar aircraft to contiue the tomcats mission

  • The AIM-54 phoenix was a truly exceptional missile, and it was always unfortunate that no other aircraft could mount these weapons. Even fighters like the F-15 probably could have benefited greatly from equipping the world's longest-ranged air to air missile with its own active radar.

  • No way the Phoenix fire control system with the missiles works anymore on those F-14A's. Those missiles and radar are like 30 years old.

  • @anpmech

    The radar system on Iranian F 14s are brand new radars much better then the original F 14 who already in those times could target 6 different targets at long range but todays fighters like 1the F 16 -F18 or F 15s can only target 4 not even at that range of the F 14 .The F 14s radar are huge and thats why the air plane is so huge and the Iranian Phoenix missiles have much longer range then 120 AMRAMs .

    The Zionists need something like the F22 to get in to the Iranian air space

  • @anpmech

    I'm pretty sure that iran makes these missiles itself now.

  • I wonder if the Iranian pilots listen to high way to the danger zone when they fly and idolize top gun.

  • So nice birds, those Tomcat's it would be horrible to see them get damaged or participating in a war.Let's hope peace will remain, so that we can see more videos of this true fantastic jet

  • F14 zamane shah !!! k alan chandtash bishtar namonde baraie in rezhime maloon !!!

  • Say what you want, but the only F-14 ace was an Iranian. . .

  • what is the name of the music sound familiar, also i think it is bull that Iran still fleis these but the country of origin put them out of service

  • @callofdutyguy9

    It's the credits theme from "Blade Runner".

  • @callofdutyguy9: The music is by Vangelis: The F-14 with the AIM-54... the world's best interceptor... EVER!

  • @callofdutyguy9 The F-14 is a very capable fighter given that it gets updated from time to time. The F-14 was retired from US service due to political reasons, and maintaining a heavy fighter on a carrier was a cumbersome job. That's why they brought in the F-18 Super Hornet and now planning for the F-35.

  • @Zartan1357 Hi, what exactly was the political reason that lead to the retirement of the F-14.

  • @callofdutyguy9 Thanks for asking. I am not sure exactly, might be due to the costs of maintaining it. It was probably in their interests to reduce the burden on tax-payers money. Also, a military would always go for cost effective solutions. The F-18 SH is very maintenance friendly. As a rule of thumb, the cost of the aircraft is 1/3 the cost of the its entire life-cycle. But then again, the F-35 program isn't cheap. Fully implementing the F-35 is gong to take a while.

  • @Zartan1357 i heard cost had nothing to do with it, it has to do with present day ROE and public opinion. BVR combat breaches most ROE and is frowned upon, hence no more phoenix and the shift towards stealth, get up close and personal without them even knowing

  • @callofdutyguy9 The F-14 however is the best 4th generation naval fighter nevertheless.

  • @callofdutyguy9 why do you say its bull?

  • how many iranian f-14s are still flying? wikipedia says about 22

  • @macfanofgi do you think iran would sell them when they retire them man i want a tomcat

  • @nicksf1 I want a tomcat too!!

  • @macfanofgi 60 still operational 

  • @raminss80 i herd iran had 44-60 but only 25 can fly.

  • @macfanofgi check it here :always u can trust wiki , not what people say

    search iran f14 in wiki u will get ur answer

  • In the movie Top Gun the F-14 had to get within 100ft to engage another aircraft:)

  • @NielsShoe

    Thats a "movie"........

  • @NielsShoe

    Which is why it's a movie.

  • USA made a big mistake by selling these dangerous fighters to Shah.

    I think USA needs to be more carefull with Islamic countries because almost every single islamic country have the potensial to be an enemy of the Westren world, because the majority of their citizen hate the west and westren lifestyle.

    USA is selling powerful weapons to Saudi arabia, and pakistan, but those countries can become an enemy by a simple revolution from their people who most of them hate US

  • @maroom1 AH shut tha fuck up, u fat irish prick... from when queers like decide for the world?. fuckin paranoid cunt....

  • @maroom1 hahahahaha

    that's so true! the Aks that are being used in Iraq to fight the US soldiers are the same AKs that the US sold to Iraq during the Iran/Iraq war.

    How ironic they are being killed by their own weapons

  • Iranian F-14A Kill Scores during Iraq Iran War:(125)

    -FIGHTERS:(2) Mig-27 Flogger D, (11) Mig-25 Foxbat, (29) Mig-23 Flogger, (24) Mig-21 Fishbed, (33) Mirage F1, (1) Super Etendard, (1) Mirage 5, & (17) Su-17/20/22 Fitters

    -BOMBERS:(5) Tu-22 Blinder

    -ATTACK HELICOPTERS:(1) Mi-25 & (1) SA 321

  • Too bad Iran stuck with 25 F-14A Tomcat which are old. Iran F-14 have no longer have spare parts. When there are no spare parts all the F-14 are all dead and number size of F-14 going down. These F-14 could easily be shot down by Israeli F-15C/D, F-15I, F-16C/D, and F-16I.

  • @SilentEagles nope, they cannot be shot down by f-15, even f-16, F-14s radar is still one of the best on the world and it can engage up to 6 targets on 100miles so there is no chance for f-15s and f-16s to come close, and impossible to engage f-14

  • @glazuna Not alone, perhaps - but with an E2C, the F14 is not safe.

  • @macdude72 yes alone it did a lot of times, it was presented on one of youtube videos, check it out

  • @SilentEagles by rise of digital tech and softvare ussage, Iranians  completely overhaul an tomact for 45 days!!!

  • Iran best fighter aircraft the F-14A Tomcat doesn't stand a chance against Israeli F-15C/D/I, F-16C/D/I, US F-22, F-15E, F-15C, F-18E/F, and F-35. Too bad Iran air force going be whipped out. Iran air to air missiles like AIM-9A, Fatter, Sedjil, AIM-7, and AIM-54 are useless to hit US, NATO, and Israeli fighter aircraft. US, NATO, and Israeli fighter aircraft have better avionics, radar, technology, and weapons than Iranian fighters aircraft.

  • @SilentEagles "AIM-54 are useless to hit any....aircraft."

    do you realize that the AIM-54 is the most powerful and the longest range AA missile ever produced by the US? do you even realize that the IRIAF are the only AF that uses them right now? and do you know they are superior than AIM-120C (or even D), and can attack 6 targets simultaneously 180km away?

    also, we all don't know the true specifications and capabilities of this modified/modernized Iranian F-14s, so don't underestimate them.

  • @itom95 sence they got those F14s they dident recived any spare parts... the only way they could maintaince a few of them operational is buy taking parts from other F14s to keep atleast few fliable... if the Aim54 was so strong US would still use it.. it maybe have long range but i dont think its that accurate and hard to avoid missle, Aim120C is the same as Aim120B only a version of smaller missle to fit the F22 small storage inside the plane, and the Aim54s range is 150km not 180.

  • @davidds0 no, they already made their own F-14 spareparts, except they can't make more F-14 airframes.

    AIM-54 was the best long range AA missile the US had, the reason they retired it becoz it was EXPENSIVE. actually Iran had problems making them too, so they took a HAWK SAM, and turn it into a AIM-54 alternative. it has about the same range, but more accurate and maneuverable than AIM-54 (supposedly), and can only fire 4 simultaneously instead of 6.

    but yea, AIM-120C is still a good missile.

  • Iran half the population wants a western lifestyle the other are religious extremest.

    they better pray the the republicans in this country don't get a foothold again cause once Israel attacks the nuke sights there is no way the U.S. will allow Iran to counter strike. Iran has been a thorn in the worlds side like: N. Korea, and Hugo too. But Mr. O wants to be friends with the bully. All you end up with is a sock in the eye and a bloody lip.

  • @jonesy97 they are just making nuclear powerplants, to produce some shitload of electricity. not complying international community? lol IAEA already stated that the Iranians have no weapons-grade nuclear materials, and there are no evidence of Iran making some nuke weapons. IT IS made for PEACEFUL PURPOSES.

    the western powers are just too jealous and afraid seeing Iran doing some uranium enrichment, so they started making some stupid accusations.

  • @itom95 That declaration by the IAEA was 5 years ago. Since then, he has stated that he wants Israel to be wiped off the face of the earth. Really only one way to do that. I know that's not evidence of any wrong doing, but the rest of the world is uncomfortable with the thought of Iran with nuclear weapons. Especially when you threaten other countrys. Iran will be watched closely by the rest of the world, like it or not.

  • @jonesy97 i don't know much more about their nuke program lol. but we, Muslims, know that Ahmedinejad loves playing around with western leaders lol the nuke threat is just some kind of joke (but yea people should take it seriously)

    but he did really said, Iran will attack Israel (not using nuke of course) if Israel invades another country. and people already know that Iranian ground forces are much bigger than those jews.

  • @itom95 Yes, Iran's ground forces would swallow Israel's, but they're not neighbors, geographically speaking. That would be a long way to move an army. Besides, I agree, that Iran is the last middle eastern country that the Israelies should try to mess with. I also hold The Persian people to a much higher standard than I do the Jews or the arabs. Lets just hope it never comes to that. It's unstable enough, in Israel right now, as it is already. Too much drama lately.

  • @jonesy97 Iranian Air Force is also getting bigger and better compared to the Israeli Air Force. yeah i hope a war between Iran-Israel will never happen. Israel would be fucked up if it gets real.

  • @itom95 israel was allways outnumbered by ground forces and many times by air forces and naval too... we still kicked some good ass 99% of the times.

    more tanks or more soldiers doesnt mean anything.. most important is the training and ofc the strateges and tactics. also iran will have serios truble attacking israel with ground forces, im pritty much sure that in any case of war israel will attack iran togather with US as well as maybe syria and hezbollah

  • @davidds0 i'm sure that those Iranians are well equipped and well trained, same for the Israelis.

    but Israel would not last long without US support though.

    idk why ppl always talk bad about Iran, for example their nuclear program. they just wanted to make some electricity for god's sake lol.

  • @itom95 its because their extream attitude against the west and specaly US and Israel, and its not because US or israel have been bad to them at first place, its been there sence the revolution, before US and israel were great allies of Iran, how do you think they got those F14s and F5 and F4? and also some soldiers of the airforce that are loyal to old iran sabotaged the F14s after the revolution

  • @davidds0 yea its their crazy attitude that made the west hate them. most people think Ahmedinejad is crazy, but i think he's a badass lol he can do everything even under sanctions.

    and no, you are wrong. its the US F-14 technicians who sabotaged those F-14s. Iran hired them just before the revolution.

  • @itom95 it is also told that some loyalists pilots and aircrews sabotaged during the revolution, its not a sure thing, anyway i doubt these F14s can even get close to israel without having errors and emergency landings

  • @davidds0 i'm sure they can, F-14s are not some 'shitty' jet. furthermore, Iran also equipped those F-14 with new Russian techs. in fact, their F-14's AN/AWG-9 high powered radar's range/capabilities has increased by half.

    e.g. AN/AWG-9 could detect a cruise missile at 150km. now they can do around 220+km.

  • @itom95 F14 not a shitty jet indeed, but it requires alot alot maintance compared to F15s for instance, actuilly that was one of its biggest disadvantages of the F14, the maintaince, spaciely because of the wings, and sence iran have no spare parts its gonna be real hard time keeping them alive

  • @davidds0 yea F-14s wings are quite complex. hey, remember that Iran already produces their own spareparts.

  • @itom95 its not so simple to prduce their own spareparts without blueprints of the aircraft, how can you guarantee that those spareparts are as good as the original?

  • @davidds0 they didn't use any blueprints, they reverse engineered it themselves, much like China did to Russian jets. its also possible that they still have the blueprint of some parts after the revolution.

    but at least they can fly, do missions, and land without much problems lol.

  • @itom95 reverse ebgineering never do the same results as the original, but yes its better then nothing.. chinese planes are so... made in china XD, but i mean israeli pilots are one of the best if not the best, beaten up USAF pilots in red flag 60 to 1!!

    and flying newer F15 and F16s not the same from 60s, with better avionics and systems, israel have much higher chance in winning , but never forget that even a mig 21 can damage f15 and even take him down if the F15 pilot underrestemate the mig

  • @itom95 Citation? If its true then Saudi Arabia's F-15 US fighter jets deal are no match for Iran's air force. Hope they fix the problem that F-14 is not maneuverable as the wing just snap if the pilot make high G turn.

  • @itom95 Whatever it is, they are smart people and have good strategies to outsmart US army on land, sea and air. I know Iranians are not bluffing when they say they have such capabilities to 'destroy Israel in 11 days' or 'launch 11,000 missiles in minutes' or 'no US soldier will return to USA'.

  • @Epiderm and israel will send a shitload back at them.

  • @Epiderm

    bluff or no bluff... saying stuff like that is really dodgy. It's very barbaric and I sometimes feel ashamed to say i'm from Iran cause that retard ahmadinejad keeps making a fool out of himself and everyone around him -.-

  • best plane ever made. But the funniest thing is that America made it and they even had F-14D but they still retire them. And also they destroy every tomcat lol, they could just sell them and get a lot of money back!

  • @glazuna tomcats were too old and too expensive and outdated thats why they were retired.

  • @MrXreXes you telling me that F-14D made in 1991 was too old?

  • @MrXreXes actually they were retired and most of them were shredded just to avoid any spareparts being exported into Iran.

    "too old and expensive" is just an excuse made up by the US government. "too old" my ass, it was just 2 years older than their F-15s.

  • @glazuna they destroyed it so Iran can't acquire the spartparts. which is a stupid decision by the US government. what's so bad about Iran? if they sell the spareparts to Iran, i'm sure they'll get tons of money lol.

  • persian cats. looking beautiful but they belong on the deck of a u.s carrier ...sad

    hornets by mandate TOMCATS BY CHOICE

  • @IknowJohnLear Correct, but these aircraft are only detectable for a short amount of time with low frequencies. Low frequency waves also pick up a lot of crap is what I've been told. The F-14 is a very great aircraft. Kills at long ranges. We can't say any aircraft is better than the other because we have to see it to believe it.

  • How ever, at 40km, I was able to fire one sparrow AIM-7, and one Phoenix missile at f-22. After that I had to quickly do some maneuvers to counter and confuse AIM-120 which was fired by f-22. Unfortunately, Sparrow missile went boles tic because of its pour radar trackers, but Phoenix missile was so close to hit f-22, but because of stealth, high maneuvers, and high ECM frequencies it managed to confuse Phoenix missile very easy. After that we both got in to dogfight, which f-22 won,.......

  • How ever, in this highly accurate simulation, I discovered that F-14 radar can track and detect any hostile air threat in 340 to 700 km depending on the enemies radar cross section level, and the size of the air craft. F-14 was not successful against stealth fighters like F-22 raptor, cuz stealth reduced the radar detection, and by then f-22 was already with in the range to fire AIM-120 ( which was 50km) , and its was very difficult to scape form that missile or confuse it..............

  • JohnLaer, SR-71 is not a complete stealth air craft, read more about SR-71. Only they used radar absorbing material on the skin of this air craft, which makes it partly stealthy. How ever, I am Persian, and I been using highly accurate air to air combat simulation that involves stealth, 4th and 3rd generation fighter and servilance air crafts. And trust me, I been put f-14 in so many ultimate test against so many new generation and old generation air crafts.......

  • @TheALPHAKILLER The SR-71 is partly stealthy. It's radar signature is as big as a door in your house. That's about it.

  • Dude regardless that f-14 was came to play during 70s, it still capable of taking down almost any 4th generation fighter air craft , accept the stealth fighters. Its powerful and highly capable radar is so powerful, that IRIAF used it as mini-Awakes during Iran-Iraq war, and AIM-54 is with the range of 150km is breaking record for any air-to-air missiles, and once its fired at u, is very hard to get a way with it, with almost 86% accuracy.

  • Iranians and their out dated planes. Come on step up your game. Do what India did get some Su 27 flankers. Them Mig 21's, F-4 Phantoms, and F-14 Tomcats aren't going to cut it in the 21 century.

  • Iran F-14 is useless aircraft. Iran F-14 going end up scrap aircraft. See with not spare parts, engines, & other the F-14 is useless and turn into rust.

  • You'd say the same thing about the F-35 if the Iranians had them. With your retarded remarks, you make us Americans look like we're the most ignorant people in the world.

  • 159 Iraqi planes were shot down by Iranian F14s during the 8 year war ,more than half by Aim-54 phoenix missile .

  • Persian cats at the hands of brave Iranian pilots ruled the air in the 8 year war with Iraq . under embargo and against all odds they managed to keep them airworthy and combat ready ,of course there was a war and embargo and the numbers available at times during the 8 years varied ,but when ever they were up there Iraqi planes turned around and fled the seen ,they had direct orders to do so ,once the conversation between Iraqi pilots after detecting an F14 saying f arba ashara yalla ! yalla !

  • f-14 project was finance by iranian shah and iran gave loan to america for f-14 project okay buddy go study more america still blocking moneys from iran since iranian revolution from 1979 iran had bought  300 f-16 and additional 80 f-14 and paid them off but they were delivered to IRAN due to IRAN's revolution.

  • Does the US still use the F-14 in dogfight training? As the agressors now?

  • Yes

  • No, AFAIK the Tomcat has been retired completely.

  • If Iran run out of AIM-54, AIM-9, & AIM-7! Iran could just buy Russia AA-9 Amos, AA-10 Alamo, & AA-11 Archer to armed the F-14A Persian Cat!

  • actually iran is mass producing a newer version of the american hawk sam which could be put on tomcats and have a range of 40 ks. so no worries on shortage of missiles. second aim-54 missiles are too heavy and its dangerous to use them because the f-14 wouldnt be able to do dog fighting when its armed with phoenix missiles.

  • Why does this video have a soft filter? It makes the whole thing seem kind of unreal.

  • l lo lon long longl longli longliv longlive longlive i longlive ir longlive ira longlive iran
  • @mashangian333 f fu fuc fuck fuck i fuck ir fuck ira fuck iran

  • its not the speed or performance of the F14 you should be worried about, its those AIM-54 missiles theyre carrying, nothing in the world has a longer range than them.

    just ask the 100 or so iraqi pilots that were downed by them.

  • >its not the speed or performance of the F14 you should be worried about, its those AIM-54 missiles theyre carrying, nothing in the world has a longer range than them.

    You forgot about MiG-31M + R-37 :)

  • They do have the planes & the technology. They did not used the F-14 fully in Iran-Iraq war. After the war, through black market & reverese engineering they where successfully able to do all maintnance. Plus their pilots are very gutsy.

  • They may have our planes, but thier is one thing they dont get with the plane, its the technology, all they get is a plane thats capable of flying, our guts are not included!

  • LOl they have their own engineers to give them their guts..

    oh .. and the Russian and chinese.

    So, we got our:

    Own engineers

    Russian engineers

    Chinese engineers

    LOL

  • americans has not guts we have been waiting for you yankees for passed 30 years man talk is cheap FUCK AMERICA AND FUCK ISRAEL

  • The thing is, when was this video taken?

  • the new generation of F-14 Tomcats Beggins at Iran for new service after they left the U.S. . the question is the F-14 Tomcat will become bad when the U.S. Heard that they're Greatest plane is on the hands of their enemies.

  • Uhhhhhhhh...........no. We dont fear it...Its antiquated now, and after we liquidated all of ours their equiptment is basically as usable as a MiG-21s(sucks and is old).

    We GAVE them F-14's to fight Iraq(considering that Iraq was fighting Israel and we wanted to help our allies) but it will NOT come back to bite us, considering that our oldest F-15's can shoot down their F-14's before the F-14 even sees it.

  • The F-14 is still a capable aircraft, but in comparison with the most modern missiles and radars, along with superior US pilot training, the Iranian F-14s aren't a threat. It's just the feeling of knowing our enemy has US made military planes makes it all seem scary.

  • Was that means: The US+Gaves F-14 Tomcat to Iraq(with diplomacy)+Iraq accepted= Fights Israel?

  • Actually thats not true the F15 was a response to the mig foxbat and the new and improved mix foxhound would be an easy transaction between iran and russia, F14s are faster and more maneuverable than the F15 they are basically for interceptor role while f15 is a multi role fighter, only reason the us phased it out of service is cuz several time private companies sold illegal F14 parts to Iran and they needed to prevent that from happening as well as the F14 costs alot to maintain.

  • Morons like you obviously respond to these videos without any knowledge of military equipment, and tactics. The F-14 was developed for long range interception of threats to carrier groups, and could be used for air to ground attacks. It still has one of the best radars capable of engaging up to 6 targets at ranges of over 100 miles! In that sense, even the F-15 is no match for the Tomcat. The Iranians have also upgraded their F-14s over the years so don't count it as being old or outdated.

  • @edwong3 24 targets buddy,love u.

  • @mickybigdicky  Don't know what you're talking about, but whatever!

  • @edwong3 radars capable of engaging up to 24 targets.

  • @mickybigdicky Now I see what you mean! Yes the AN/AWG-9 could track up to 24 targets, and engage as many as 6 with the AIM-54 Phoenix up to 125 miles away! Iran has reversed engineered the Phoenix, and produces it domestically. I wonder if they will ever do the same with the F-14 one day?

  • @edwong3 yes the new fighter thay are working on is called morghe ashura(google it)and it's based on f14-su30and su35.

  • @mickybigdicky OK I checked out the Morghe Ashura, but couldn't find a lot of information. I did see a website with an artist's concept drawing, and it does resemble contemporary stealth jet fighters (F-22, F-35, etc.). I don't believe Iran has an operational prototype yet, but if they can pull this off, their air force will be taken to whole new level of combat effectiveness.

  • @mickybigdicky the F-14 Tomcat was only able to engage 6 targets....I say again 6 targets! NOT 24! Plus the Iranian examples are and where not up to par with the American Navy F-14 Tomcats, since the Northrup Grunman contract dismantled most of the high tech targeting radars...so teh Iranians had to try to build it from sratch...and failed!

  • @Ron11B10 yes but thay can track up to 24 targets and take out six....

    the f14s were over hauled in iran(since last yr).

  • @edwong3 I agree with your statement. Iran has had the time and the resources to get their Tomcat program to the point where they can update avionics and replicate (or compensate) the parts required for maintenance. No matter how patriotic you are, NEVER underestimate an adversary (talking about both sides) or their equipment. Its funny. I see some very familiar SE being used...

  • @edwong3

    i'm confused as to how the fuck they managed to upgrade their tomcat with SO many sanctions placed on them.. where are they getting this technology and resource from?? so sneaky

  • @WeedIsGood4Y0u Persians are very wise people. They are making most of these advances on their own. I wouldn't call them "sneaky". More like RESOURCEFUL.

  • @edwong3

    Hmm. well i'm persian myself but i'm only 16 so i dnt know jack shit hahahhaha

    All i know is, I want to join the Air Force (not necessarily Iran's) and fly fast jets for a living :)

  • @WeedIsGood4Y0u i think you need to be born in the states to be a pilot. and i dont mean its a law, its not a law but when they see your mid eastern face they gonna say no.

  • I wouldnt be worried about F14s if I was the US army Id be worried about their 100 Cobra attack helicopters

  • Wait no make that 200.

  • this is god's plan they plan god plans and dont forget god is the greatest planner

  • me and god are planning on doing some thing with your mom since god is the greatest planner.

  • Well said....it is time we started to think about establishing trade with people who treat others fairly. Politics aside, Iranians flying this airframe is scary regardless if has Block A avionics.

  • akhonda poze f-14 haye shah ro midan.

    kose madare akhond.

  • Regular rank and file Israelis are great people. Regular rank and file Persians are great people.

    What's the problem? Are they so bored over there they need to hate each to have something better to do with their time?

    Iranians have the right to exist and so do the Israelis. Now get along, already.

  • It's to late. The jews will trigger world war three very soon.
