Thanks! Every little bit helps! :-)

You're welcome. :thumbup:

Ignore the CONFIDENTIAL markings, this manual was declassified on 31st December 1995:

 

 

Declassified on 1995?!!:shocking:

[Blaze1]

Fwind why are you shocked? :)

Do you mean it's ancient or very recent?

 

The manual/workbook itself, is predominantly early to mid 1980. There are a couple of pages that have been revised and dated mid 1982, with the picture I posted existing in a 15 page section dated September 1983.

01-F14AAA-1T and 01-F14AAA -1A seems classified. So something about AWG-9........:doh:

Earlier versions of those manuals are unlikely to be classified. Early versions of the -1A are certainly not classified.

 

My manual is a student familiarisation manual called FAM IV and covers the following topics:

Just a friendly recommendation to edit your screenshots with the declassify block overlaid or otherwise attached so people don't get all spun up.

 

Was there no separate distribution restriction (e.g., distro D)? If so...don't tell me.

 

I, personally, had the "oh shit" reaction before I read your comment. Assume you don't want to mark up your copy, but if you don't care, I'd black marker redact all the classification markings if it's reached the declassify date.

Hi Dino

 

I appreciate the advice. I was thinking about posting the declassification statements but didn't want to clutter the thread, but I'll do that because I already have those images uploaded to imgur.

 

Marking the classification print for redaction, would be like painting a moustache on the Mona Lisa to me.:megalol:

 

No, there are no distribution statements on it. I think such statements (distribution statement A, B, C, D, E etc) were only introduced in the late 80's or early 90's, however earlier documents may have had FOUO markings.

 

Here's an image of a page showing the declassification markings:

That's a pretty cool reference. I wouldn't mind you "cluttering up" the thread with more of it. Makes me want to go ebay scrounging.

That is one beautiful manual. Must be a rarity, given that Heatblur doesn't have access to it even though they, so they said, have the largest collection of Tomcat manuals one could have.

Thanks Manuel

 

There're so many manuals involved in the development of an aircraft that it would be extremely difficult to acquire everything (even taking classification into account). The manual I have for instance is a student workbook, so it doesn't bear a NAVAIR number or any real references for that matter and isn't an item one would usually ask for. I collect military aviation manuals and have done so for a long while, however I never knew of the workbooks existence prior to a few weeks ago. I knew airframes all have workbooks and various study guides, but I would never have known to be this specific if requesting info.

On that note, here are some that have already been uploaded:

 

 

Each section usually consists of 3 or 4 parts, so for example, the Pulse Radar page posted above, shows the part I title page. There are 3 subsequent parts (II, III & IV) with a similar title page.

 

The general arrangement is that each section consists of an introduction, description of the objectives, a questions section, an answers section and finally, the most important and interesting, the summary.

 

It's a pretty big book being over 1 and a 1/4 inches thick, perhaps 400 pages long or so.
