On the invite it asked what song you would like to be played at the disco part of the evening, between us my friends have suggested the entire Top Gun Soundtrack

the F14 was more of a fighter/bomber than fighter so the migs they go up against would have torn them to shreds

you can tell from the size of them, the double tail fins and the moveable wings

The F-14 was never intended as a bomber. It was a long-range interceptor, designed to defend carrier battle groups from Soviet bombers equipped with long-range anti-ship missiles.
True, that wouldn't have made it ideal for dogfighting, but with it's excellent radar and Phoenix missiles it could engage multiple MiG targets from well outside their range.

from my sketchy recollection of the film, they weren't even MiGs, they were actually Northrop F-5 Freedom Fighters with red stars on.

MiGs never had even numbers - 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31 etc.
