This is my rendition of the Grumman F-14A Tomcat, and it is in my humble opinion, the best version on SimplePlanes!
I have frequently been frustrated in my search to find a well-built, realistic, and well-performing Tomcat in SimplePlanes, so I went ahead and built one the way I wanted! It has pretty realistic maneuverability and speed, but it can also stand toe to toe with a lot of the relatively "overpowered" SimplePlanes designs.
(AnIndonesianGuy, if you ever see this, your Tomcat was a fantastic starting point! I hope you like what I've done with it!)

Modifications done by me are extensive, to summarize:
-Added roll spoilers
-XML modded the engines, changing from AG4-controlled afterburner to a purely throttle based afterburner
-Speaking of afterburner, modified the color and shape to be more realistic
-Fully furnished the cockpit, including G-force camera, HUD readout, and a furnished RIO cockpit with a radar scope
-Added replica missiles/gun (which all work REALLY well by the way!)
-Added countermeasures
-Added trim inputs
-Reworked drag points via XML modding to make the flight model more realistic

As you can see, Mukola's AIM-54 Phoenixes fire true to life! I have yet to see one miss. This 'Cat's BVR capabilities are insane, and start praying if you merge with it! Cockpit is fully furnished as accurately as I could figure out how.
Craft Instructions are complete and included.
I intentionally left it largely undecorated as far as markings/paintjob goes, that way YOU can decorate it in the livery YOU want.

DISCLAIMER: The main airframe design credit goes to AnIndonesianGuy's "Grumman F-14 Tomcat", and I pulled in a lot of other parts and designs:
-M61 Vulcan 20mm: “[F-22] Raptor” by The CommentaryGuy
-Front Cockpit & G-Camera: “Grumman F-14 Tomcat” by Deeznutz1234
-AIM-9M Sidewinder: “AIM-9 Sidewinder Evolution” by Cutters127
-AIM-54 Phoenix: “AIM-54” Phoenix by Mukola
-AIM-7M Sparrow: “AIM-7 Sparrow Air-To-Air missile” by JohnLewis
-And a few pieces that I cannot trace, I downloaded the original designs I pulled from a VERY long time ago.
