The F-14 Tomcat, made famous by Top Gun, may be gone for good after airstrikes in Iran.

The F-14 was made famous in <em>Top Gun</em>. The U.S. sold the planes to Iran in the 1970s, only for the two countries to become enemies. Iran kept its F-14s flying for decades in the face of U.S. sanctions. <img alt="The final catapult launch of the F-14 Tomcat fighter aircraft aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt on July 28, 2006.
