I'd like to mention that there are dozens of good photos of that F-14 here: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.co...2/walk070b.htm

Please note the real thing was an F-14A

Just recieved my Vf-103 Merry Christmas and on the inside of the box it lists.
WTW-72-009-008 VF-24 Camel Smoker Oct 1990



This would be another nice one from Witty

The Tomcat looks good but please Witty get rid of that weapons load. I boubt this bird ever flew in that config, Just the dummy Aim-9 and the sensor probe will do. If the bird Comes as pictured, Its all wrong and all those nice weapons will go in the spares box.

I have never seen a VF-24 Fighting Renegades F-14 looking like that.

This reminds me of something similar to the Keith Ferris experimental camo scheme, although a different shade.

I hate to derail this topic, but I don't understand why no diecast company will take on the task of producing a VF-41 "McClusky" Tomcat. How can so many people just ignore the fact that a tomcat squadron won an award that is dedicated to planes which did successful bombing runs during wartime? The VF-41 Black Aces were the only ones to pull this off during their 1999 air raid over Kosovo.

And since Witty has produced some fine tomcats (wearing cag markings that seemed highly unlikely) it seems kind of strange that they haven't even considered making a VF-41 McClusky.


I think it's high time somebody "rattled the witty cage" so to speak. Is there anyway I can get a hold of these guys?

What Witty really needs to do for their Tomcats is to start putting gun-vents on them.

The “Thief of Baghdad” was the last F-14B built and was the first Tomcat used as a “Bombcat”. VF-24’s desert camouflage schemes were applied during a deployment to NAS Fallon in late 1991. The colors of the 'Thief of Baghdad' & 'Camel Smoker' were said to be inspired by German WWII desert camos. During their time at Fallon VF-24 worked on air to ground weapons delivery tactics. A month later the 'Thief of Baghdad' was transferred to an East Coast squadron and was later destroyed in an accident which killed both crew.
