Photo Comment

163225 was delivered to the US Navy in July 1986, it was later redesignated from F-14A+ to F-14B. The Cat VF-24 (as pictured), VF-101, VF-103, VF-102, was modified to F-14B(U) by October 2000 and ended its operational career with VF-102. It was then transferred to FRS VF-101 and withdrawn from use at Oceana in early 2004. The F-14B(U) was most probably scrapped by early August 2004.
