Vought V-507 Vagabond

Another look at the Vought V-507 Vagabond, which was a unbuilt design for a supersonic, twin-engine, variable-sweep-wing fighter aircraft that was Vought's submission for the U.S. Navy's VFX (Fighter Experimental) which ended up being the F-14 Tomcat. #v507 #f14tomcat #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari

F-14 Design Concepts

Did you know there was a mockup of an F-14 with a single vertical stab? Grumman considered a single tail configuration, often associated with the 303E design, to reduce weight and complexity. #f14 #f14tomcat #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari
