An F-14 "Tomcat" from the "Checkmates" of Fighter Squadron Two One One (VF-211) ignites its afterburner seconds before a launch from the number three catapult. John C. Stennis and her embarked Carrier Air Wing Nine (CVW-9) continue to conduct bombing missions in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
