Interesting how almost all the F-14 radomes have radomes with worn paint.

Looks like to me that there is no paint on those radomes. I think air ops and the Iranian sun caused that discororization. A lot of the USN Tomcats originally had no paint on the radome. And you can't get any more original that the IRIAF Tomcats...

Captured Iranian armor on display in Baghdad after the war. Its calculated that Iraq captured about 75 percent of Iran's tanks and artillery in the final offensives.
