The Cat


Armour F-14 Tom Cat ' Jolly Rogers' 1/100

F-14 big, fast. Eyes that could see and track targets 70 miles distant. I have read, at a speed of 500 kts, the fuselage generated enough lift that the wings were superfluous. A cat tail? probably. The fleet's Toms replaced by a new breed of Rhinos. 9 lives verses one hell of a horn.
