>A U.S. Navy Grumman F-14A Tomcat from Fighter Squadron VF-2 Bounty Hunters climbs with its afterburners ignited, in 1989. VF-2 was assigned to Carrier Air Wing 2 (CVW-2) aboard the aircraft carrier USS Ranger (CV-61) for a deployment to the Western Pacific and the Indian Ocean from 24 February to 24 August 1989.https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:F-14A_VF-2_climbs_with_afterburners_1989.jpg

>>63944107 (OP)I get the joke and I like cats and tomcats too but I miss /k/aturday, it getting killed last year felt like yet another of the few remaining bits of old /k/ulture heading into the sunset.
Good thread.
Any pics of the F-14 production line?
