- HISTORY ASPECTS:The F-14 Tomcat, adorned with the iconic Jolly Rogers livery, holds a special place in the annals of naval aviation history. The Jolly Rogers squadron, officially known as VF-84, gained fame during World War II and continued its legacy flying the F-14 in later years. The skull-and-crossbones insignia became synonymous with the F-14s of VF-84, creating a distinctive and fearsome appearance that struck awe into both allies and adversaries.The F-14 Jolly Rogers variant featured the same advanced capabilities as the standard F-14 Tomcat. Its variable-sweep wings, twin engines, and AN/AWG-9 radar system contributed to its versatility in air combat.
