• Concerning the Grumman F-14A Tomcat "Ebony Knights"
  Since its first journey in 1970, the U.S. Navy's F-14 Tomcat was indeed among the better top Air Defense Fighter.

With this particular brand-new part, the Tomcat have been fitted with a brand new tools arsenal. Since 1996, the F-14A employs the AN/AAQ-14 emphasizing pod, known as the LANTIRN. This targeting pod provides F-14A accuracy bombing ability by procuring goals for nose-mounted infrared laser or other laser led tools. The AN/AAQ-14 focusing on pod contains a high-resolution, forward-looking infrared sensor (which will show an infrared image through the target toward pilot), a laser designator-rangefinder for accurate distribution of laser-guided munitions, target monitoring computer software, and even more. The LANTIRN, and GBU-16 and GBU-24 guided bombs, allows precision striking with one minute margin of error from some meters as a result of tens of centimeters. This precision are recognized at long-range. The VF-154 Ebony Knights is attached to the USS Kittyhawk, homeported at Yokosuka Harbor, Japan. The Ebony Knights was indeed created after WWII, and was indeed implemented to both Korean and Vietnam War. F-14A had been used using the VF-154 from 1984, and used extensively operating Desert Shield through the Gulf War in 1990.
