USN VF-2 “Bounty Hunters” joined the USS Constellation (CV-64) in June 1994 and remained there until July of 2003 when they were re-designated as VFA-21 and re-equipped with the new F/A-18F. In late 2002 to 2003 VF-2 took part in Operation Southern Watch and Operation Iraqi Freedom and dropped the first Tomcat JDAM. During the two operations they flew 483 sorties delivering 294 LGBs, JDAMs and Mk-82s. F-14D 164350 was delivered on February 7, 1992 to VF-11 then VF-2 in 1997 and finally VF-31. It is presently on display at Joe Davies Heritage Air Park Palmdale, California.

The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is a twin-engine variable sweep wing aircraft capable of supersonic flight. The aircraft is crewed by a Pilot and a Radar Intercept Officer (RIO) who share the tasks of navigation, target acquisition, ECM, and weapons use. The Tomcat was only operated by the United States Navy and the Republic of Iran Air Force. The name “Tomcat” is said to come from the call-sign used by Vice Admiral Thomas Connolly, which conformed to the U.S Navy tradition of giving Grumman aircraft feline names.
