F-14 Tomcat - Válečná technika 10 - DVD

The documentary project War Technology gradually introduces viewers to all the weapons and military equipment used in the battles of the world wars. The first part of this series consists of 15 episodes and focuses on warplanes and fighters. The film takes you aboard an American nuclear-powered aircraft carrier from which the F-14 operated. You will get to know the work of specialists whose temporary home is a 300-meter-long deck with a takeoff and landing strip, with 17 levels from the deckhouse to the engine room and storage areas. You will learn why the Tomcats were better than other contemporary aircraft, how their weapon systems and computer equipment advanced the technological edge in combat. You will see from the cockpit the destruction of enemy aircraft, surface-to-air missiles, air defense systems, and the flight performance of the F-14. You will become familiar with the armament of this fighter, the design of the airframe, piloting, and ground crew operations. Unique footage from Top Gun provides insight into pilot training, their transformation from excellent pilots to outstanding instructors, whose confidence, thanks to perfect training, is the best asset they can apply in combat against an opponent.
