This F-14A was delivered to the US Navy on 21 December 1983 and was directly assigned to VF-21. It served the Freelancers up to late 1990 when it was transferred to the PMTC, followed by VF-111 Sundowners (as pictured), then VF-213 Blacklions, VF-154 Black Knights and eventually VF-101 Grim Reapers. The Cat was stricken on 29 September 2003 and scrapped on 13 October 2003. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
