At the moment of the retirement this was the oldest Tomcat left in the Navy’s arsenal, it first flew in 1975 as a F-14A, returned to the factory in 1991 and emerged from a refit in 1992 as an F-14D. On Feb. 7, 2006, it became the last F-14 to fly a combat mission over Iraq, dropping a GPS-guided 550-pound JDAM armament. The plane was a veteran of 1,762 catapult launches from carrier decks, made 1,769 carrier landings and fired 6,041 bullets. Now resting at Lakeland
