The F-14 Tomcat is perhaps the greatest American jet fighter of all time, being operated by the US Navy from 1974 until 2006. Only one other country ever operated the Tomcat, but not only does this nation still fly F-14s, but they are an enemy of the United States. This is the story of Iran's F-14 Tomcats.
Historically's Forgotten History Series is a series to teach people lesser known and forgotten (yet very interesting) moments in history.
(Also please note that all the video footage is of American and not Iranian F-14s, even when I'm discussing Iran's F-14s. This is simply because finding footage that I can use in a video of an F-14 is hard enough, and footage of Iranian Tomcats are hard to come by, so please excuse the lack of accurate footage.)
