the F-15 Charlie's and the F-16 Robos I believe it was until those aircraft got their radars upgraded they couldn't do that they were a one-for-one and that made the F-14 really unique and the way the system worked was similar to the way the synthetic aperture radar worked except where it the AWK-9 was a analog system and then it improved in the APG-71 which is a system I worked on and I think that one there was true synthetic aperture radar but again it could track 29 targets and engage things simultaneously and yeah that was pretty cool I didn't realize that you know to me you know learning the system I just figured that all those military aircrafts could do it I didn't realize that the F-15 and that 16 they couldn't do it until sometime in the mid-80s
