The Strike Eagle KILLER? | Heatblur F-14B(U) Tomcat Review!

Hey guys! Today we are taking an in depth look at the new DCS F-14B(U) Tomcat from Heatblur to help you determine if this jet is worth your hard earned dollars! Please Keep in Mind everything you're seeing in this video is Pre-Release and thus a Work in Progress and Subject to change. It’s no secret that the Razbam Controversy and the loss of the F-15E Strike Eagle in particular has left a hole in the heart of the DCS World Community and fan base and I am certainly no exception. This is exactly why I have been so hyped for the release of the F-14B(U) from Heatblur, a large, fast, two seat, long range, JDAM capable 4th Generation Strike Fighter. Just what the doctor ordered to help heal the DCS World Community and make up for the loss of the vaunted Mudhen! So is it worth the $57 if you’re a previous Turkey pilot, or if you’re a Bug, Viper or Mudhen pilot enticed by the F-14B(U)'s upgrades, $110 for the entire Tomcat Collection. The F-14B(U) was an end of life upgrade program to bring remaining F-14B's up to a similar standard and capability as the F-14D and allow for better pilot situational awareness in the air to air regime and allow for precision strike and JDAM compatibility in the Air to Ground role. It does so through the addition of both off the shelf and bespoke avionics upgrades: VDIG-R HUD EGI or Embedded GPS INS PTID or Programmable Tactical Information Display CDNU LANTIRN Pod DFCS or Digital Flight Control System 0:00:00 - F-14B(U) Review Intro 0:02:15 - What Is the F-14B(U)? 0:06:07 - Flying the F-14B(U) In DCS 0:06:44 - DFCS 0:10:00 - VDIG-R HUD 0:11:40 - Jester Updates 0:14:45 - JDAM & GPS Capability 0:16:03 - NEW DTC System 0:18:14 - Potential Negatives of the F-14B(U) 0:19:24 - Pricing Concerns 0:20:45 - AI Concerns 0:21:47 - The Bottom Line #topgun #dcsworld #f14 ►►System Specs DCS/Gaming PC: GPU: GeForce RTX 4090 CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900K CPU @ 5.20GHz Memory: 128 GB RAM 3600mhz Current resolution: 2560 x 1080, 144Hz ►►Here is a link to my Patreon Page every bit of support helps make awesome DCS videos and missions possible!   / spudknocker   ►►If you want to contact me with feedback on videos or want to collaborate feel free to join my personal discord here:   / discord   ►►And if you do donate to my Patreon make sure to link your discord account for your Roles in my Discord server.
