F-14D Super Tomcat



 F-14D Super Tomcat



The F-14D was introduced in the Ace Combat Series, since Ace Combat 5. It went on to become the primary variant of the Tomcat since.

Description
The F-14D Super Tomcat was designed from the F-14A. The reason for this new variant was because of unreliable engines. This led to the F-14D. The Super Tomcat uses the more capable General Electric F-110-400 engines, a more powerful engine compared to the Pratt & Whitney TF-30 engines used on the F-14A. The F-14D Super Tomcat is the most modified version of the F-14 Tomcat Family. Aptly called the Super Tomcat, it is able, in real life, to intercept up to 6 targets at once using the the powerful APG-71 Radar, and the accurate AIM-54C Phoenix missiles. It served with distinction in Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, and in Iraq during it's brief career,retiring on September 22, 2006.
