Hobby Master HA5215 1:72 Diecast Metal Display Model Plane, Grumman F-14A Tomcat US Navy VF-74 Be-Devilers (USAF McDonnell Douglas RF-4C Phantom II Killer), Aircraft Carrier USS Saratoga 1987

VF-74 Be-Devilers Grumman F-14A Tomcat 162707 c/n 553 AA101 assigned to the USS Saratoga was on a NATO training exercise over the Mediterranean on April 30, 1987. During the exercise 162707 detected a target, USAF RF-4C 69-0381, supposedly an enemy aggressor. The F-14 pilot heard the ok to fire, checked with his RIO who said "Yeah, go ahead and shoot him", thinking the pilot would make an exercise shot call instead he fired a live Sidewinder downing the RF-4C. Miraculously the Phantom crew survived but 162707 crashed in 1993.
