Summary

Description

A U.S. Navy Grumman F-14A Tomcat of Fighter Squadron 191 (VF-191) "Satan's Kittens" on the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CVN-65) in 1988.

VF-191 had been established on 15 August 1943 and was disestablished on 1 March 1978. During its career it had mostly been assigned to Carrier Air Wing 19 (CVW-19), recognizable by the tail code "NM". CVW-19 was disestablished on 30 June 1977. On 1 December 1986, VF-191 was established again. It was assigned to CVW-10, which had been established on 1 November 1986. The "NM" tail code of the old CVW-19 was given to CVW-10, although there had been a CVW-10 from 1952 to 1969 which had had the tail code "AK". The new CVW-10 should have been assigned to the aircraft carrier USS Independence (CV-62). However, it was never deployed and was disestablished again on 30 September 1988. VF-191 had already been deactivated on 30 April 1988.
