“We love the F14’s folks, very beautiful plane, we are going to take them back and make them great again”- President Trump Assures Supporters He Won’t Target Irans F-14’s.

In a surprising turn of events, former President Donald Trump has issued a statement regarding a potential U.S. military action against Iran, emphasizing an unusual condition: the preservation of Iran’s aging fleet of F-14 Tomcat fighter jets. As tensions escalate in the Middle East, Trump, speaking at a recent rally, declared, “We love the F14’s folks, very beautiful plane, we are going to take them back and make them great again we aren’t going to blow them to smithereens.” This statement comes amid reports of Iranian F-14s still operational despite decades of sanctions, raising questions about their strategic value and the feasibility of reclaiming them. While military analysts debate the practicality of such a move, given the U.S. Navy’s retirement of the Tomcat in 2006 and the subsequent destruction of spare parts, Trump’s pledge has sparked speculation about a potential diplomatic or symbolic gesture, leaving observers uncertain whether this is a serious policy shift or an unconventional negotiation tactic.
