The real life Veritech fighter (Robotech)

Tomcat is still the sexiest jet ever in the skies for the navy. The A-10 is the sexiest and the meanest thing for the air force...hands down!!!

Yes and no.
The early models of the F-14 never lived up to expectations due to the TF-30 engines. Also, with the collapse of the Soviet Union the Fleet Defender mission went away and with it the logic being the AIM-54 (which was not as effective against fighters as it would have been against Soviet Backfires and Blackjacks).
That left the F-14 an expensive system in need of major updates (the A+ and the D), when money was running short.

@flamingarse1 there's also the Tornado with this kind of wing system.

Even better show than some old Sukhoi flanker shows lol.
-
@jorgemdllin Also the Mig 27, but they both are very lame.
-
Coolest display for years on Youtube!!! :)

@Change6609 Yes but the Tomcat is a much better plane than the replacement Hornet. Only reason it was retired was because Cheney doesn't like Grumman.

@TheScrumpty I feel ya. If I was a pilot, the only plane I'd wanna fly other than an F-14 is an F-22. I love the F-14 more though.
