I didn't answer your question because I don't have to. It's ALREADY been answered. Multiple times in very unambiguous language.

You...you're arguing with an actual fighter pilot. Someone with tangible experience in his chosen field. It's things like this that make people like Mover and Victory205 roll their eyes at us and cause the rest of the community to cringe hard enough to crack a molar.

Yup, I read this one. It's a cool Q&A. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

They've said multiple times already that they're not building an F-14D. The radar data is classified and the DoD isn't making exceptions. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

That...wasn't the point of my response.

A glance at your bio says you live in Portugal. Now, I've never lived in or even visited Portugal. So, what would you say then, if I began to speak about Portugal, either in a positive or negative light, having never set foot inside it's borders? Your response would probably contain a lot of incredulity, right? I've never even visited your country, how could I possibly know if I'm right or wrong? Heatblur's module is mountains of fun. I've whiled away a lot of hours playing with it since release, and I feel like I understand the Tomcat a lot better than I ever did before. But I'm not qualified to speak authoritatively about flying it. The closest I ever came was seeing them come and go outside of NAS Oceana and catching some airshow demos. I don't doubt at all that DCS: F-14 is as close as any of us could get to the experience of actually being there, but as good as I'm sure that it is, it's a simulacrum, a mimicry. Simulations are simulations, and real life is real life.

Well, there will be certain instrumentation changes between the two variants. Stall warning, for instance lol...

Ok, thanks. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I remember Red Kite saying that you will have the option of using a human RIO, but I don't recall anything about a wingman. Is it possible to have your buddy as a Dash 2? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

A 'B' 'Cat with a Sparrowhawk is clearly more plausible, but Heatblur currently has their hands full delivering what they've initially promised us. Moreover, to the best of my knowledge, we've never gotten word from them about the possibility of an upgraded F-14B. So, I think - I HAVE to think - that they're either unable or uninterested.

For my part, I'm pleased that DCS embraces aircraft that are spread over such a wide range of history. I bought the Hornet when it released, and I can't deny that I was very impressed with all that it's capable of, but it didn't really SAY anything to me. I quickly grew bored with it. Each to their own, of course, but I much prefer machines with little to no computer augmentation. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I felt that way for a long time. "I already have the best engine/airframe combination, so why would I ever want to downgrade my performance envelope?" But, you know... The closer we get to the "go live" date for the F-14A, the more eager I become to try it out. I've read and heard so much about the notorious temperament of the TF30 that I can hardly wait to experience it for myself. I'll always prefer the 'B', I think. But, who knows? Maybe the 'A' model will endear itself to me somehow. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I'll be here all week. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I've tried teaching myself to (mostly) ignore it and focus on the airframe buffet instead. For landings I just sort of...wing it.

I think you might be happier with the Hornet or Viper. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Heatblur has already said there will not be an F-14D due to so much of it's documentation being classified. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I was wondering about that. Will this campaign be "A model only", or will I be able to use my beloved "GE Turkey"? Looking forward to it either way.

If he's that obstinate on the matter, then I doubt he'll change his opinion regardless of the facts you present. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

The A model used afterburner. For the GE powered 'Cats, it was mil power. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
