Actually Ed, the push boat has to get the barge up to 45 knots before the rubber band powered catapult can launch the F-14........seriously!

--------The sad part is that Digger is right on the money. Kerry would make something like this a reality in a heartbeat given the chance............Bill S

Sho nuff, but he would first take out the ejection seat and defensive counter-measures since they would be too costly :frown: What a putz!!!

Dah i think he'd scrap the whole plane.. too expensive to REMVOE things... next thing ya know we'll be flying canvas wrapped byplanes and we'll be dropping bombs over the side from the front cockpit... oh wait.. we did that already.. it was called WWI... :umbrella:

You guys have this all wrong. They strapped this plane down to the deck. Then when they light it off, the barge will do ab out 90mph. Tug has to back out before that tho.
Who needs a Berkley jet drive when you have military surplus?
Heres a jpg of the pic for you dial up guys

Skunk Works project for the new F-14 Seaplane configutation.
Actually, the large metal object is the F-14 droptank for ultra long range missions from US soil rather than using aircraft carriers to deploy them to a particular theater of operations.
