Jeepers, I wonder if the combat history of the F-14 will ever be written up as it seems it is, like it or lump it, almost exclusively Iranian.

There is, the US shoot down of 2 Libyan fighters in 1981 and then 2 more in 1989.

There is a good synopsis of the combat history of the F-14 on Wikedpdia. Of course, you can always watch "Top Gun." "Top Gun" is a good movie on DVD since you can skip all the cheeseball Tom Cruise scenes and just watch the planes.

The 1989 Libyan shoot down is on you tube. A lot of the video looks staged though.

I understand the need to destroy all the flyable F-14's in our inventory. Nevertheless, it is sad to think we will never see a vintage one flying at an air show in the future

Didn’t F-14’s shoot down some Libyan jets in the Med.?

Gee, Wally, you'd be wrong.
