But when used for landing and/or in the LDG steering command mode, this allows for disengagement of the ATC. When the steering command is in A2A mode, this allows for CAGE/SEAM lock-on of the AIM-9 Sidewinder. CAGE/SEAM Button: multifunction button.But when used for landing and/or in the LDG steering command mode, this allows for disengagement of the ACLS. When the steering command is in A2A mode, this acts as a pilot lock-on tool for the AWG-9 radar. The aft and forward positions manually adjust the commanded wingsweep as seen on the wingsweep indicator, but will not allow for oversweep or unsafe sweep angles as determined by the CADC. "AUTO" sets the wing to sweep automatically determined by the onboard Central Air Data Computer (CADC), "BOMB" sets the wing to sweep in an angled highly angled position for maximum stability of the aircraft to allow for precise release of unguided weapons. "EXT" is a momentary and needed input position that extends the speed brake outward depending on the aircraft speed. Speed Brake Switch: 2-position switch.There is an afterburner detent along with a cutoff detent for maximum throttle and shutdown of the engine for each quadrant. The throttle of the F-14 Tomcat consists of 2 quadrants, both for the left and right engines.

EASIEST AIRRADAR DIY UPDATE
EASIEST AIRRADAR DIY MOVIE
Most people will recognize and adore the F-14 because of its stardom presence in that one weird volleyball movie from the '80s. The F-14 is also capable of carrying an array of air-to-ground weapons, such as dumb bombs in both high and low drag forms, air-to-ground Zuni rockets and even laser-guided bombs, which can be self-designated using the LANTIRN targeting pod on the F-14. Of course, the practical range of the AWG-9 is rather more limited, especially if you are shooting at more maneuverable fighter-sized targets, but even at these closer ranges, the AIM-54 Phoenix is still a capable missile that should not be underestimated. Also, being big means you can carry a lot of fuel!
The reason that the F-14 was so incredibly large and heavy was that it carried the large AWG-9 radar and accompanying AIM-54 Phoenix (air-to-air) missiles: this very capable combination allowed the F-14 to make shots of up to 200 nautical miles at the bad guys. The F-14 was the first US fighter jet with twin tails and was the largest & heaviest US fighter to ever fly from an aircraft carrier. The Grumman F-14A/B Tomcat is a two-seat, twin-engine supersonic variable wing-sweep fighter aircraft. This page is focused on the DCS World F-14A/B Tomcat module, which is still in Early Access. Please direct feedback and ideas to Del3te-O#0678 or #wiki-discussions on Discord. A lot of infromation might still be inaccurate. NOTE: This guide is currently being reworked.
