On this episode of Big Blend Radio, military historian and award-winning author Mike Guardia discusses his new book “Tomcat Fury: A Combat History of the F-14.” For more than three decades, the Grumman F-14 Tomcat was the US Navy’s premier carrier-based, multi-role fighter jet. From its harrowing combat missions over Libya to its appearance on the silver screen in movies like Top Gun and Executive Decision, the F-14 has become an icon of American air power. Now, for the first time in a single volume, “Tomcat Fury” explores the illustrious combat history of the F-14: from the Gulf of Sidra…to the Iran-Iraq War…to the skies over Afghanistan in the Global War on Terror. https://mikeguardia.com/
