The wide angle was easy, as I recall it cost around $40. I was most likely influenced by the work of other RIOs, especially “Tumor” Twomey, who created some of the best “face shots.” His work can be seen in the commemorative book, Grumman F-14 Tomcat: Bye-Bye Baby…! Some pilots also took good selfies, such as “Nick” Nickell, who published some of his along with a great article on The Drive website.Īfter looking critically at my images, I realized that I needed a wide angle lens and a way to mount the camera at a distance greater than my arm’s length. At VF-2 I tried a few more dramatic shots such as this one taken just after the cat shot: By the way, we generally called them “face shots,” which was also the slang term for forward-quarter Sidewinder missile shots.

AWG-9 radar was upgraded through APG63 as shown.F1 4D Tomcat CDkit graphics show vastly improved weapons selection and Hughes APG71 digital radar.

F14 was quickly upgraded to use AIM7E-2 Sparrow and AIM-9J/L Sidewinder. It could individually target six aircraft at range 100 miles - but expensive.
