Wow, I didn't think the tomcat was that far under it's prime. I thought it was still a going strong in the military? Fast, maneuverable, respectable payload.

Did they introduce the AMRAAM to it before it went?

I'd heard they had to keep it in service a bit longer...

This is a huge event for the aviation photography group I am in. There were 140 photographers from Fencecheck alone at the Oceana show last weekend for the last big show featuring the Tomcat. It is sad to see it go.
