The F-14 Tomcat

The ideas behind the Grumman F-14 Tomcat first began to take shape back in the late 1950s when it was discovered that the Soviet Union was quickly developing an increasingly accurate airborne missile system that would pose a major threat to the US Navy's warships.
Entering service in 1974 with VF-1 and VF-2 on USS Enterprise, the F-14 was one of the most sophisticated, reliable and deadly aircraft of its day.

In this book, author Terry Treadwell looks at the development and evolution of the F-14 and its subsequent operational history with the US Navy, including encounters with Soviet-made Libyan MiG fighters over the Mediterranean as well as the 1991 Gulf War, the war in Afghanistan and the 2003 Iraq war.
The book also looks at the sale of the F-14 to the Shah of Iran. Including more than 100 photos covering the F-14 from development through to the final stages of its career, this book will give the reader an insight into one of the most iconic aircraft of its day.

The F-14 Tomcat Story

Designed as the ultimate long range fleet defence fighter interceptor for the US Navy, the Grumman Tomcat entered frontline service in 1973 as a replacement for the legendary F-4 Phantom II. The F-14 achieved its first aerial victories, against the Libyan Arab Republic Air Force, in August 1981, and went on to see action in Operations Desert Storm, Southern Watch, Deliberate Force, Enduring Freedom and, finally, Iraqui Freedom. The F-14 was employed primarily as a precision bomber with the US Navy from the late 1990s until its retirement in 2006.

This book tells the story of this fascinating aircraft.

Grumman F-14 Tomcat

Die F-14 Tomcat ist das wohl mit Abstand bekannteste moderne Trägerflugzeug aller Zeiten. Wohl kaum ein Luftfahrt-Enthusiast kennt nicht die Kinofilme "Top Gun" oder "Der letzte Countdown" - in beiden spielte die Tomcat eine Schlüsselrolle und sie machten den riesigen Schwenkflügeljäger weltberühmt!

Die F-14 entstand Anfang der 1970er-Jahre als Hochleistungs-Abfangjäger zum Schutz der US-Trägerkampfverbände vor feindlichen Bombern und ihre Leistungsdaten sind auch heute noch beeindruckend. Eine herausragende Darstellung dieses legendären Flugzeugs. Tolles Bildmaterial dient dabei zur Abrundung.
