The US Navy flew the F-14 from its introduction in September 1974 until it was officially retired from US service in 2006.
During the late 1970s, before the overthrow of the Shah in 1979, nearly four dozen F-14s were delivered to Iran, and became the front-line fighter planes of the Imperial Iranian Air Force. Accounts vary, but it is believed that perhaps half of those planes are still in active service with what is now called the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force.
