Cmdr. Roy Kelley, said he will miss the plane he has flown for the last 15 years and still the world's fastest and most maneuverable fighter plane.

While the F14 is certainy a wonderful aircraft, I believe that the F15 has the edge in flat out speed (~Mach 2.5 ). I'd be interested in your take on the agility of the Tomcat as compared to the F16 or F/A18.
