Grumman F-14 in movies/ tv

As far as I gather ...the iconic Grumman F-14 Tomcat has appeared in dozens of films, tv shows be it using stock footage or actual air to air filmography etc. so being geeky decided to list out what I know apart from Top Gun.

The Final Countdown

Raise The Titanic

Airwolf Episode 1, Season 1 (Navy stock footage)

Hart to Hart Episode 4 season 5 Pandora Has Wings (Point Mugu VX-1 )

The Hunt for the Red October

Navy SEALS (USN footage of carrier externally even though filmed on Spanish Navy Principe de Astrias interior )

The Finest Hour (CNN or NBC or Navy news stock footage during a Desert Storm).

Clear and Present Danger (on carrier deck as F/-18A being readied)

Executive Decision (Jolly Rogers sae as The Final Countdown)

made for Tv series based in Robin Cook medical thriller Invasion (albeit sci fi) using stock footage

Various episodes of JAG, NCIS using navy and Grumman stock footage ..

Can anyone else think of any others?

cheers
