8. Grumman F-14 Tomcat Most variablegeometry aircraft are optimised for fast, low-altitude attack, emphasizing good gust response rather than manoeuvrability. Despite the Tomcat's considerable size http://www.fighter-planes.com/info/f14.htm

F-14 Tomcat, Grumman Photo by Robin Powney Large and powerful two-seat, twin-engine, shipboard fighter with variable geometry wings. The weapons system and the Phoenix missile armament are unrivalled for long-distance interceptions, making the F-14 one of the most effective heavy fighters. The original F-14A model was powered by TF30 engines, but the TF30 was too unreliable and not powerful enough. After a lot of experimentation, the F110 engine was adopted, and installed in new-built F-14Ds or upgraded F-14Bs (Formerly known as F-14A+). The F-14D also introduced digital instead of analog avionics. The F-14A entered service in 1972 with the USN, replacing the F-4 Phantom II. The F-14 is expensive and very maintenance intensive, and the only export customer was Iran. On 22 september 2006 the USN retired the the F-14, replacing it with the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. At this time, the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) remains the only air force flying F-14's.

Actual aircraft wings are complex three-dimensional objects, but we will start with some simple definitions. The figure shows a wing viewed from three directions; the upper left shows the view from the top looking down on the wing, the lower left shows the view from the front looking at the wing leading edge, and the right shows a side view from the left looking in towards the centerline. The side view shows an airfoil shape with the leading edge to the left. This airfoil is a modern, thick airfoil, which is slightly different from the thin airfoils used by the Wrights and shown below. The terminology, however, is the same. Top View The top view shows a simple rectangular wing geometry, like that used by the Wright brothers. The front of the wing (at the bottom) is called the leading edge ; the back of the wing (at the top) is called the trailing edge . The distance from the leading to trailing edges is called the chord . The ends of the wing are called the wing tips , and the distance from one wing tip to the other is called the span . The shape of the wing, when viewed from above looking down onto the wing, is called a

As far as is known, of the many aviation publications available at the time of the creation of these web pages, none has ever been devoted entirely to the subject of variable-geometry aircraft. Individual books exist for individual aircraft, but again there are none that look at all of them under a single cover. These web pages were thus created with the intent of becoming part of an aviation museum's web site as an educational "e-book" supplement.

Hobby Ring Search Airplane Wing Geometry and Configurations Dec Plane wing configurations and wing shapes Aircraft wings are built with many shapes and sizes for desired flight characteristics of an airplane to achieve greater lift, balance or stability in flight. Here are some different wing types: delta wing Thin triangular wing that is especially aerodynamic. variable geometry wing Arrow-shaped wing found on combat aircraft; the angle it forms with the fuselage can be changed in flight. tapered wing Wing that is perpendicular to the fuselage and whose width decreases toward the tip. straight wing Long wing of consistent width and perpendicular to the fuselage; it is found on low-speed planes such as cargo and light planes. swept-back wing Arrow-shaped wing that is found on jet planes. The figure below also shows the common wing forms and configuration. Wing configurations The F-14 Tomcat is a supersonic aircraft with a variable geometry wing. This aircraft wing geometry changes according to flying speed by swinging the wings forward and backward. Aspect Ratio Aspect ratio is an indicator of the general performance of an aircraft wing. In aerodynamics, the aspect ratio of a wing is defined as the square of the span divided by the wing area. It is a measure of how long and slender a wing is from tip to tip.
