The '''F-14 Tomcat''' is a supersonic, twin-engine, variable sweep wing, two-seat fighter designed to attack and destroy enemy aircraft at night or day, and in all weather conditions. Carrier based, the Tomcat has variable geometry wings, for easy storage, and increased speed or maneuverability.

The Tomcat has been replaced by newer planes in the [[United States]] airforce. In order to prevent spare parts reaching terrorists ([[Iran]] uses those planes based on purchases they made under the [[Shah]]), the United States government is having the planes destroyed.
