Doug- Not to mention the fact that there wasn't enough money for AMRAAM
on the F-14. That hurt too. BRBR Concur. Even the USAF F-16 weenies got AMRAAM, along with AIM-7- P. C. Chisholm CDR, USN(ret.) Old Phart Phormer Phantom, Turkey, Viper, Scooter and Combat Buckeye Phlyer And the cost for the software val/ver (it was already developed) was a pittance. Personally, I find the decision to not configure the F-14 for AMRAAM (could have been done in the late 80's) an example of unpunished criminal behavior. Based on recent headlines, unpunished criminal behavior is a fairly common occurrence within the halls of the pentagon. R / John |
