>t. DCS fag

While i do believe that the newest D models would have been able to keep going for a while, the rest were just starting to get too old, were barely used for their original mission any more and instead used as GBU dump trucks.

t. war shitter

Don't wake the angry slavtard.

>What are you talking about, of course the Tu-22M is stealth!

I would nut if WT got the F14

I can't imagine possibly balancing against the AIM-54.

>Airframes literally so fucked they were falling apart and on top of that maintanence was a complete bitch even when they were brand new
>B-but muh range, muh 1960s missile and muh kool wings

has the aim-54 ever had a single kill?

No, literally all of them fired in anger failed

It wasn't designed to be used against manoeuvering targets.

Nope. F-14 is a boomer meme plane much like the A-10

Not with US service. The Iranians allegedly used them to great effect, but no one knows how much is exaggeration vs actual fact.

I always save these type of images to wave in the face of the rabid part of the scale modelling crowd that will always claim that every condition except factory new is "over weathered" and unrealistic. (Except if it's a Russian aircraft ofc, then it should have mud pilled up in the intakes and moss growing on it)

Not only that, out of 3 launched by the US only one actually fired, the two others never even got the engine going and just dropped like a rock.
Of course that is still preferable to the other alternative that could have happened with improperly stored and handled rockets, which would have been explosion on ignition.

It was, just not at maximum range.
It is not as maneuverable as a modern missile in terminal guidance but no worse than others of the same class at the time.

Yes with the iranians

Thank you based Cheney for getting rid of this maintenance hogging widow-maker and replacing it with the safer, cheaper, and more effective super-hornet.

Doesn't matter since anything above 7.0 is broken as fuck

It really does.

Why does the aircraft carrier look like a gay club?

Because the picture was made by a zoomer who thinks making everything pink and blue is 80s and aesthetic

Because it's already full of a bunch of gay seamen

>>doesnt know about downing 3 Iraqi aircraft with a single AIM-54
While entirely possible considering the large warhead the story as told doesn't add up.
Three fighters flying close enough to all get splashed by one missile would just look as one target on the radar anyway so how would they know they downed three?

>Everything Iran claims is facts

Gee, I guess America is the root of all evil now and needs to be nuked

Unironically based & redpilled

>America is the root of all evil now and needs to be nuked

This. But unironically

the ultimate boomer plane

Look at me. I am the daddy now.

Bite the pillow, I’m going in dry

The F4 was a kickass plane for longer than you've been alive.

>more effective super-hornet
Nope

Eh, it’s probably a more effective dogfighter. That’s about it

Probably by not making it work properly like everything else.

Using my meme like that, and it doesn't even make sense.

Because their seamen are stuck on a ship, in the middle of nowhere, with 5,00 other men.

There was a few years where the late F-14 variants were actually more capable than the early F-18 variants, but once the transition was over it was a win-win.
