Made by Grumman to promote the new F-14 Tomcat, this film takes place at Miramar, California and Fighter Town USA.
At mark 0:33, Fighter Town USA is seen with various front line Naval aircraft including F-4 Phantoms. Here, pilots are now using lessons from the war in S.E. Asia in developing F-14 combat maneuvering syllabus, using the variable wing at different speed ranges, and getting use to the plane's sophisticated electronic packages. The multiple weapon systems include Phoenix missiles which can be launched simultaneously at targets more than 15 miles away. A two man crew divides responsibilities that range from visual tracking and navigation to kill assessment in a tough ECM environment.

At mark 3:57, we have all the crews learning about the F-14 and how to use it to their advantage. This is a full time job for them. Every working day a routine of debriefings and flying, flying and debriefings. Beginnings before dawn and also at nights. Soon enough its time to fight, at mark 4:18, we see pilots preparing for fight against Top Gun fighters. Each plane has its special abilities. At mark 5:08, F-15 versus T-38 Talon, a lesson in defensive maneuvering. The T-38 Is one of the tightest turning aircraft in the inventory. We have the instructor teaching the pilots on how to defend and maneuver. He sets up the rule of engagement and recognize when they should make their move and engage. He teaches them how to counter when locked on the weapon system. From the class room to the real world and back to the classroom. Here at mark 7:57, we have the instructor who flew the T-38 conducting the debriefing. Briefing them on his turnings and maneuverings on the air.

At mark 9:10, we also have the F-14 flying crew preparing against the A-4 Skyhawk, another good turning low wing craft. The tag team instructor also instruct on the defense. Again the F-14 is on the defensive, the A-4 rolling into a good gun position. The instructor at mark 9:40 instructs on maneuvering and how he will counter attacks on the engagement to make the kill. At mark 10:35, both crews return to the class for debriefing. This is to remind the F-14 pilots of the capabilities of their aircraft and that it will respond after been pushed beyond the limits of other aircrafts and to instill confidence in them. The instructor gave them instructions on their aircraft and its maneuvering capabilities.

At mark 12:40, we have the F-4 Phantom opposing the F-14. Both are high thrust away fighters. Unlike the F-14 however, the Phantom has divided high speed to be effective and thus is vulnerable to the tight turning Tomcat. Both will use radar to find one another then engage. The F-14 is the aggressive. At mark 13:22, the instructor gives the crew some ideas. Having heard it from the class room of course is a lot easier from been there. We have both aircrafts on the air maneuvering and trying to engage attacks. At mark 14:20, we see them briefing each other in the class about their engagement and maneuvering after the air flight. At mark 15:17, pilots have been impressed about the F-14 after putting its capabilities to test and using it to their advantage. The different pilots tried the F-14 to check its amazing capabilities. With the confidence the pilots have, they can now translate F-14 real capabilities into real performance. The F-14 can also stand on its tail. The aircraft performance, flexibility and wide varieties of weapons can be adapted to any foreseeable threat and take the fight to the enemy and to win.
