[Magot]

After release F-14A/B it will be interesting see too version which was in real battle.

On Iranian side.

 

I think that for HB Simulations it will be "low hang fruits" have next version of plane.

But am not sure how much detailed informations was uncovered.

 

In book "Iranian F-14 Tomcat units combat" (Osprey Combat Aircraft.49)

 

there was some information released:

 

F-14A-GR IIAF/ IRIAF

 

changes against F-14A US NAVY:

 

- downgraded ECM

- downgraded ECCM

- AWG-9 changed frequencies or jumped wavelengths/ counter jammings

- Processors was slowered about 1/100 against US NAVY F-14A processors

- APX-81-M1E IFF system for Iranians could only detect and interoggate transponders of Soviet origin
