I don't know if this is part of your question (it seems to be), but I've
asked about the accuracy of Tom's book[s] about Iranian F-4s and F-14s without getting too much of a straight answer. Heck, not so much as a "wink/nod" to confirm it when talking to Phantom/Tomcat aircrew (current and former). I'd love to know how accurate it is, and while Tom certainly seems credible enough, it'd be nice to get confirmation from another insider source. Certainly, if his claims are true, it'd be hard to see how Tomcat crews could resist bragging about those kills (especially compared to the Eagles ~100 kills). That would also suggest that Iran has a cadre of very skilled and/or experienced pilots in their AF, which would make any action against Iran very interesting to say the least! But that's drifting a little far off topic, so I'll cut it here and reiterate my request to hear more from those in the know. Cheers, Tony |
