The Grumman F-14 Tomcat, a two-seat supersonic fighter with twin engines and variable sweep wings, is manufactured by Grumman. The Tomcat was designed for the United States Navy’s Naval Fighter Experimental program (VFX), following the failure of the F-111B. The F-14 is the first American fighter of the teen series. It was designed using the lessons learned from combat with MiG fighters in the Vietnam War. ? This specific model kit represents the F-14A Tomcat version. The F-14A is the first two-seater, twin-engined, all-weather, interceptor fighter variant of the U.S. Navy. It was first flown on December 21, 1970. It served as a U.S. Navy fighter that performed the dual role of long-range interceptor, air superiority fighter and bomber. It was deployed from 1974 to 2006. The “swing-wing” provided variable sweep. The F-14A, which covers most of the early variants, was the most prolifically-produced variant of the Tomcat. 79 of these aircraft were exported to Iran, before U.S.-Iranian Relations began to deteriorate. They later participated in the Iran-Iraq War. ? ?Requires paint and assembly.Package Dimensions: 41.0 cms (L) x 29.6 cms (W) x 8.6 cms (H)
