F-14 has two vertical stabilizers too.
Its the shape of the wings that gives it away. An F-14 with its swing-wings back has the silhouette of a delta wing, and from a distance it might appear like it has no horizontal stabilizers.
The aircraft in the above photo has horizontal stabilizers that are clearly separate from the fixed wings.
@Delta_V@lemmy.world Right again.. Why did I think one only had one? It's a mistake that I've made before. Not sure how that got stuck in my head. I blame old. ๐
