Hey Guys, What If the F-14 Tomcat were Fitted with a Twin Gun Turret under the Chin? I'm Talking about Fitting a Turret to an F-14A in this Case.  What Say You? Thanks for Looking.Dan

One of my childhood dreams is a F-14 converted into side-by-side seating with two chin gun turret arranged like a pair of aerodynamic strakes or the lift augment devices under the Harrier jump jet....... another is one outfitted with a dorsal turret like Boulton Paul P.92 or even a pillbox-like machinecannon battery.  ;D

Inspired by arcade for arcade goers.  :wacko:
To the individual soldiers, *everything* is a frontal assault!

To-do list here

Look at the VF-1 Valkyrie variable fighters from Macross - they have head-mounted guns (either cannons or lasers) in "battroid" (ie robot) mode, that can be used as turrets when in fighter mode. As the VF-1 is heavily influenced by the F-14, that might be a good starting point.
