107. Yes spare parts for an airframe we have retired.......
The F-14 was feared once and that was with American air crews and an American flight program. Wanna guess how many hours US pilots get a month? Want to guess how many Iranian pilots get?? Want to guess what happens when US Pilots in F-22's with lots of flight time go up against Iranian pilots in F-14 with next to no flight hours???

So you will say the AIM-54 Phoenix missle........How many kills does the Phoenix have to its name?? 0!!!!! That's right, the Phoenix has never shot down another jet in combat, it is only a killer in Tom clancy's mind. It is heavy, expensive to maintain (ha! Iran maintain weapons) useless in close combat. Sorry not attacking you, I just take my former experience as an Intel analyst seriously (before I was a combat MOS) and laugh when people try to boogeyman me with Iran's "capabilities
