From where? Iran? And why in the hell would China want to buy F-14 parts anyway? I think they'd rather be buying Su-27 parts, since that's what they're flying; last I heard, there weren't any F-14's in the Chinese air force (but I could be wrong . . . . NOT!).

Actually most F-14 parts have been destroyed along with many whole F-14s that were recently chopped up. There were even some taken from museums.

Ok, here goes. My top 10 in no particular order:

Dassault Rafale
MD F-4 Phantom
Republic F-105
Dassault Mirage 2000
IAI Kfir
Saab Gripen
Sukhoi Su-27
Eurofighter
Grumman F-14
MD F-15

(anyone know the current status of the F-15s? I know there have been several crashes due to weakened/faulty beams. The aircraft were grounded pending investigation. The problem seems to have been corrected and the F-15 allowed to fly again, then just in the past few days another one crashed in Hawaii. Are they grounded again?)
