Several companies worked on developing microprocessors simultaneously. Ray Holt is believed to have developed the first working microprocessor, the MP944, and released in 1970. This chip was used in the F-14 Tomcat used by the US Navy. It was never made available publicly, however. The Intel 4004 was the first commercially available microprocessor, and was developed by a team led by Marcian "Ted" Hoff.
