The last US Navy F-14 Tomcats retires

Apparently, the last two squadrons of F-14s Tomcats have been retired in the US Navy. This is the end of an era in naval aviation.

The only operators of the F-14 today is the Iranian Revolutionary Guards with about seven to twenty operational fighters.

The replacement for the US Navy? The F-18E/F Super Hornet which is a distinct new aircraft and not merely a new variant of the F-18A/B/C/D series.
