HobbyBoss 1/48 F-14B Tomcat Plastic Model Kit [80367]

The F-14 received its first of many major upgrades in March 1987 with the F-14A Plus.

The F-14A's P&W TF30 engine was upgraded with the GE F110-400.

The F-14A+ also received the state-of-the-art ALR-67 Radar Homing and Warning (RHAW) system.

Much of the avionics as well as the AWG-9 radar were retained.

The F-14A+ was later redesignated F-14B on 1 May 1991. A total of 38 new aircraft were manufactured and 48 F-14A were upgraded into B variants.

In the late 1990s, 67 F-14Bs were upgraded to extend airframe life and improve offensive and defensive avionics systems.
