With this first volume, Frédéric Lert charts the career of one of the most legendary aircraft in US Navy history: the F-14 Tomcat, the "mount" of Tom Cruise in the hugely celebrated film Top Gun. From its entry into service in 1972 to its retirement in 2006, this remarkable fighter spans more than thirty years of aviation history. All variants — including those sold to the Iranians before the 1978 revolution — as well as all the carrier-based units that operated them are presented, described and analysed. Combat deployments, armament, anecdotes: nothing is left in the shadows. Over 200 photographs, many previously unpublished, and more than 40 profiles.
