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.

Another way of saying the same thing is that the F-14 was developed to
meet the mission that the F-111 failed to fill. This is really the
only way the F-14 is "derived" from the F-111. Saying that this is
equal to being "derived from" is misleading. Usually "derived from" is
when existing plans are modified to meet a slightly differnt mission
such as the YF-17 and the F/A-18.
