They can probably still find F-4 parts on the market, but the US clamped the lid down tight on F-14 items. They got a few P-3's too... with an undisclosed number of Harpoons. respects, JoeC,

Heh. (and whatever other hardware leftover from the Shah's 1970's era purchases) Curtis, you could also say the same thing about F14′s and F4′s flying somewhere above the skies of Iran…… Heh.

Are you out there? I know Lex has you on "receive-only", but you need to read this CAOC link every day. The air side of the human drama we call war. Use your imagination to fill in the blanks......Modern war against 9th century abominations. re Notso H.- "we don’t even get mentioned by name" Exactly the way the Navy wants it. The Nav doesn't do ISR or at least doesn't want the attention. Clever, eh? b2 Phil? Are you out there?
