would it be worth it?

My Uncle works at NAVAIR at PAX NAS here in Maryland so I can tell you this about the F-14. No more upgrades on any systems will continue. It is being phased out and should be fully retired to reserve squadrons within the next 2-3 years. In Naval flight training, to choose the aircraft you WANT to fly you have to score above 90 on the final testing. Below that to about 75 I THINK the Navy chooses the aircraft you fly. Below 75 and you are washed out to go back into flight training, or you become a surface/subsurface warfare officer.

but as you have not much choice, either a big F/A-18, a smaller one, the greyhound or the viking.
takning in account the numbers, it will probably be a F/A-18

Or to quote Top Gun:

I'll bust your ass so low you'll be flying rubber dog sh*t outa Taiwan (or Hong Kong).

I lie awake at night dreming of flying rubber dog sh*t out of ANYWHERE............  Arh, the irony.
