F-14 Tomcat, Monument featuring aircraft in Manhattan, New York, United States
This monument in Manhattan displays a full-scale F-14 Tomcat fighter jet, showcasing the retired supersonic aircraft that served the United States Navy for over three decades.
The F-14 Tomcat was developed by Grumman and entered service with the United States Navy in the 1970s, becoming a key fleet defense interceptor throughout the Cold War.
The aircraft gained widespread recognition through its prominent role in the film Top Gun, where its distinctive variable-sweep wing design and capabilities established it as an American aviation symbol.
The monument features educational plaques that provide technical specifications, including the aircraft's length of approximately 62 feet (19 meters) and variable wingspan up to 64 feet (19.5 meters) when extended.
The monument project includes live webcams and video recordings that allow visitors from around the world to view the aircraft and witness dedication ceremonies through online streaming services.
