F-14A BOMCAT "VF-41 BLACK ACES"
In late 1995 the F-14 Tomcat took on a new combat mission as part of Operation Deliberate Force in Bosnia.
Nicknammed "Bombcat's", they delivered laser-guided bombs while other aircraft painted the targets with lasers. With the addition of the precision strike mission for F-14 aircrews, there was a shift in the emphasis of training; flight hours now have to be devoted to air-to-ground training as well as for air-to-air training. The first LANTIRN-equipped Tomcat squadron, VF-103, deployed in June 1996 onboard the USS Enterprise (CVN-65), and all deploying battle groups now have LANTIRN-capable Tomcats
