What an excellent and informative site you guys have [Link pending approval]

I wish there was a comparable site for my Tomcat, but as she is retiring, I guess there is no point.

I used to be an avionics tech for VF-103 on F-14 Bravos back in the Gulf War.

If anyone has any questions about the old Navy "turkey", let me know.

Just keep in mind that while I'm now a civilian, all possible OPSEC\COMSEC restrictions will still [Link pending approval]

I will continue my perusal of this [Link pending approval] Smile

How exactly could one make a nuclear weapon from an F-14 and employ it from an F-16? Please be specific.....

I could speculate, but lord knows I might get close....I have a pretty good imagination! Razz

It looks to be from a British Tornado.

Most likely an LGB of some type.

The streak you see at the bottom during impact is probably just a "shadow" from the explosion generated by the camera.

By the track, I think the aircraft itself was just designating, and another aircraft probably dropped the ordnance. Just my opinion [Link pending approval]

There's only one airborne laser that I know of, and it's for taking out missiles, not ground targets.

Here is a link page: [Link pending approval]

Yeah, and that sucker takes up the ENTIRE 747, not just the nose where the turret is.
