As a former Avionics Tech in the Navy, I had the privilege to work on these marvels. I will forever love the F14. Any Time Baby!!

Cool, nice sonic boom imagery in the background. I just bought Top Gun on Blue Ray myself.

Thanks, I watched top gun many times. I heard they are making a new popgun movie, this time featuring F-35.

The F-14 doesn't have hardpoints on the wings. All the stores are carried under the fuselage.

It doesn't because then they'd need a system to swivel the hardpoints as the wings are swept. Adds weight, drag and added complexity.

are you sure? I suggest you goole some photos

Yeah. It has 10 hardpoints; 6 x under-fuselage, 2 x nacelle & 2 x wing gloves. The wings themselves don't have hardpoints on them. In the picture, the wing glove hardpoints are shown too far out.

You're right. I think the angle of the photo is deceptive, plus it's difficult to determine how swept the wings are there.
