What is the difference between F-14A and F 14B?
The biggest difference between the F-14A-135GR and the F-14B that we’ve been flying is the older, less capable TF-30 engines. This version is otherwise almost identical the the F-14B that we have so avionics and control schemes are the same.
Where was the F-14 built?
A total of 712 F-14s were built from 1969 to 1991. F-14 assembly and test flights were performed at Grumman’s plant in Calverton on Long Island, New York. Grumman facility at nearby Bethpage, New York was directly involved in F-14 manufacturing and was home to its engineers.

The plane is owned by an El Mirage aviation company. Keenberg said the recycling company sold the planes to another scrap yard and lost track of them after that. The producer of “JAG,” said his company went through proper military channels when it acquired the retired F-14.
Will the F 22 be in DCS?
The F-22A Raptor is a free mod for DCS World. The project started in early 2018 with a goal of learning how to create a module for DCS from the ground up. Eventually, ED made some changes to they way mods can be made and distributed that caused the F-22A to fail.
Can the F-14 Rio fly?
The short answer is: no, the F-14 had no flight controls in the RIO cockpit. In contrast, the US Air Force does have flight controls in its two-seat strike fighter, the F-15E Eagle. But Navy leaders decided that the extra weight and maintenance did not warrant flight controls for RIOs.
Is there a DCS for the F-14 Tomcat?
The Heatblur Simulations F-14A/B Tomcat aims to simulate this iconic aircraft as a high-fidelity module for DCS World. This module is the culmination of several years of research, coding and modelling. Key features of the DCS: F-14 Tomcat include: Simulation of both the A and B models of the Tomcat.
Is the F-14 still in the Navy?
The F-14 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. The F-14 was the US Navy’s frontline fighter from the 1970s until the mid 2000s.
