It was also immortalized in the iconic motion picture, Top Gun. The F-14 Tomcat was present during many pivotal historic moments such as the two Gulf of Sidra incidents, Operation Desert storm in Iraq, the conflict in Yugoslavia, Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom. The AWG-9 allows employment of the powerful AIM-54 Phoenix air to air missile while the LANTIRN pod allows the ability to carry out precision ground strikes using laser guided bombs. Outstanding features of the aircraft are the swing-wing configuration, crew of two, and the powerful AN/AWG-9 Weapons Control System (WCS) and radar. Over the course of its long service life it also became the US Navy’s premier precision ground-attack platform and lone airborne reconnaissance asset. The F-14 was the US Navy’s frontline fighter from the 1970s until the mid 2000s. Note: you may distribute freely but be mindful of the work of others which is contained here.The Grumman F-14B Tomcat was a two-crew, variable geometry, maritime air superiority fighter that served with the US Navy for 32 years and continues to serve with the IRIAF in Iran. MISC: NYPDMAV316 and Speed-of-Heat for help and Hextopia for inspiration. Pilot's ASYM LIMITER/ENG MODE panel with no backlight, same as original cockpit.Ĭredit for most of the great work goes to these modders, who gave me permission to use their products freely (except for Fubarbrickdust who did not reply twice but left no note about 'copyright' in the 'readme', and 2013 who apparently has no contact information and gave permission to distribute freely in the 'readme') No AN/ALE-39 backlighting, same as original cockpit (any clue why?) Flap/wheels/airbrakes indicator backlighting is weak. In 1987, the F-14B, with an upgraded engine, went into production. The aircraft was developed by Northrop Grumman to replace the F-4 Phantom fighter and entered service with the US Navy in 1972.

Method 1 (NOT Recommended): backup your original files then overwrite corresponding folders. The F-14 Tomcat was the US Navy’s carrier-based two-seat air defence, intercept, strike and reconnaissance aircraft. Method 1 (Recommended): just use JSGME or OVGME. added lit position indicators for rotary knobs. tweaked most lights and panel writings for improved visibility. lightweight cockpit textures, virtually no loss of quality in VR. Additional writings on panels made clearer. Now switches and knobs are much easier to spot. Much improved night backlighting of panels. Adjusted RIO UHF radio mode (MAN/G/PRESET.) knob for better alignment.

Mitigated a bug in the RIO weapon type indicator windows (see KNOWN ISSUES). Now with Guest Stars: Kelly McGillis and Meg Ryan! Modified menu scene (Thanks Speed-of-Heat for the help and Hextopia for the inspiration!). Bradshaw relocated, so she doesn't get in the way of LANTIRN. Menu scene improved, watch out for OPFOR snooping around. LANTIRN panel lights now have different colors for quick ID. More reduced size (2K) cockpit textures, still no perceivable loss of quality. Fixed dim AOA indexer light and CAP green pointer.

RIO weapons selection drum backlighting was fixed by Heatblur. Minor texture fixes for improved visibility (RIO knobs and Transponder). ISSUE: due to bigger fonts, some TID elements may slightly overlap. Bigger TID, HSD and RWR fonts and graphical elements Nozzle Position gauge (NP) changed into %. Replaced 'GND MAP' with 'MAND ATTK' in CAP window. Added very small Dymo-like labels next to radio volume controls to find them quickly. When DLC enabled, 'blank' means 'not activated', 'Spikes' means 'deployed' and 'DN' means 'retracted'. The 'Spike' symbol means 'deployed', 'DN' means 'retracted'. Changed spoilers/DLC simbology for better clarity. Improve performance by reducing texture size. make the cockpit as readable as possible, day and night.Ģ.
