They're working on phasing out the F-14s in favor of the FA/18 Super Hornets (Puking Dog correct me if I'm wrong please). So far the current plan is to start with 10 Super Hornet squadrons; 8 of them to be based at NAS Oceana and the remaining two to be based at Cherry Point, NC.

Hey, that's Pukin', friend. Don't be insultin' the Dogs.

They are indeed phasing out the Cat, but not nearly as fast as they wanted too. The Cat is just too damn good.

Big mistake. The people in charge are dreaming. The F-18 can't fly the Tomcat's fleet defense missions.
