That is a good photo of a Tomcat during a cat shot. I was never up that close during a cat shot, but saw a few standing on "Vulture's Row" on the USS Nimitz (CVN-68) in August 1992. Doe's anyone know how old this photo is? I can't see the exhaust good enough to tell if it is a F-14A or a F-14D. The object on the starboard wing pylon, I think is a "Lantirn" pod, of which I nothing about because they came out sometime in the Mid-90's and I got out in 1993. The tail markings indicate this Tomcat is from VF-111 "Sun Downers", they were posted at NAS Miramar until the base was turned over to the US Marine Corps.
