Great new article on a little-known 1987 air engagement between F-14 Tomcats and F-4 Phantoms.

Wouldn't be surprised if we hit one, and both sides just said "ehh, talking about this out loud would be really bad."

 

 

Nothing against Iran or the Phantom, but that was a bit of a mismatch given the models involved and when it occurred.
