Default The F14 vs what we are doing now

The only heritage that the F-111B really passed along to the F-14 was
the AWG-9 radar and the design spec to carry Phoenix. The airframes
have no commonality, other than they're both swing-wing and
twin-engine. For some of the F-14 run, it used the same engines as the
F-111 but that diverged as well.

SLAMRAAM = surface-launched AMRAAM.
