This is a part of 1k special :D

*que the epic music* most of the community will know what this plane is just by looking at the cockpit and the signature painting of the jolly rogers. The stunning, legendary, beautiful, F14. Took her first flight in 1970 and entered service in 1974 until her retirement at the same day she entered service, 22 september 2006.

i would like to thank @iFalco for his angled intake-engine from FALCOM ind.
@Thealban for his insignias
@rohan for his GAU-12 equilizer
and a very special thanks to Northrop Grumman for making this beautiful artwork.

act 1 and vtol up for wings
act 2 and vtol up for landing gears
act 3 and vtol up for uhh, that canard like thing that comes out when it goes supersonic. (don't kill me for not knowing it)
act 4-5 for interceptors and guardians.

dont pitch the plane hard at 700mph+ and while the wings are out above 300mph, and pitching while rolling may be hard because when you pitch all the way and roll to the left it rolls to the right.

i hope you all enjoy this beautiful piece of work and take a moment to appreciate this aircraft.

    @Blazeinfinity yeah the wings are too weak, so its best to fold the wings at speeds above 400mph, and yes the engine is modded to allow the plane go 700mph ^^ thanks!

    @ChaMikey you're welcome. Great build. I don't usually like jet fighters, but this one is really beautiful.
