The Tomcat was developed for the United States Navy's Naval Fighter Experimental (VFX) program following the collapse of the F-111B project. The F-14 was the first of the American teen-series fighters, which were designed incorporating the experience of air combat against MiG fighters during the Vietnam War.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003eThis specific model kit depicts the F-14A Tomcat variant. The F-14A was the initial two-seat, twin-engine, all-weather interceptor fighter variant for the U.S. Navy. It first flew on December 21, 1970. As a U.S. Navy fighter it fulfilled the dual roles of long range interceptor and air superiority fighter, and later bomber. Deployed from 1974 to 2006, it successfully employed a \"swing wing\", which offered variable sweep. The F-14A, which covers most of the early variants, was the most prolifically-produced variant of the Tomcat. 79 were exported to Iran before U.S.-Iranian relations began to deteriorate, and later took part in the Iran-Iraq War.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0px;
