Photo Comment

Fighter Squadron (VF) 202 "Superheats" was a Tomcat squadron under the command of the US Naval Reserve and Carrier Air Wing Reserve TWENTY. It was based at NAS Dallas (TX). VF-202 was disestablished on 31 December 1994. Only months before this picture was taken, the squadron transitioned from F-4S to F-14A. Some Tomcats were delivered directly from the Grumman production line, others arrived from operational squadrons, creating a mix of aircraft in full colours and toned-down schemes.
