Yeah F-15 and F-18 are NOT the F-14!

Dammit now I wanna watch Top Gun on blu-ray again!

WOW I was only thinking about the tail sections. Of course my HP calculations were based on that. Imagine the gains I could get if i were to use the whole wing. Should be in the tens of thousands. Good times.

They were badass. One of the last ones to fly did a few supersonic fly-by's when I was on the IKE off the coast of VA. We all stood in awe on the flight deck telling the younger kids how lucky they were to see it. Last of an era for the navy at least. The AF still has the F-15 but that is not the same, for me anyway.

Damn right. The Tomcat did stuff the Eagle could never touch. 'Not a pound for air-to-ground' was the watchword during development of the Eagle. The Tomcat would whoop its ass in any air-to-ground engagement.
