No VF-84 for F-14B, but on the -A? Absolutely.

-103 will bear the skull and bones on the -B.

 

As for the idea in the OP; We're actually hoping to do this - but haven't approached any SMEs yet (IIRC). Ideally we'd like to put a former RIO in one VR rig side by side with a pilot. That would be super cool. :)

 

Those guys stole our mascot and livery, but I’m glad that they did! :smilewink: Squadron lineage goes back to VF17 in WWII.

 

Linking a RIO and pilot would be challenging and awesome.

I'd be stunned if they didn't include a beautiful VF84 livery. I thought that I saw a still shot of a Bones bird in one of their press releases.

 

And I agree, there are fantastic members here, and what I see from Heatblur is impressive as well. They seem to be dedicated on getting the module right, and Jester is a big deal given the value and uniqueness of the RIO in the F14 platform. Even the old F4 allowed the pilot to see the raw radar display. Not so in the Tomcat.

 

I hope HB will approach you on doing something like that with the A-model!

Yeah that's what i suspected given our B got LANTIRN. IIRC VF-84 was disestablished before LANTIRN reached the Fleet

What if they just

?

I want the VF-1 liveries... They were at Miramar in the late 80s early 90s, right? I was too young and didn't go see them up close to check markings. Just saw and heard them flying two ships overhead all the time.
