Not really. The F-14 had approximately 180 losses during it's career.
The FA-18 has had approximately 160, the F-16 over 300 and the F-15
approximately 120 through 2004. Not counting foreign users.
Also considering that carrier launches and recoveries are not the
safest ways to take off and land an aircraft. And, the F-14 and FA-18
aren't always able to divert to land bases when trouble developes, as
are the F-15 and F-16.
