Additional information about F-14B Tomcats at Oceana Naval Airstation
The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is a supersonic, twin-engine, two-seat, variable geometry wing aircraft. The F-14 was the United States Navy's primary maritime air superiority fighter, fleet defense interceptor and tactical reconnaissance platform from 1974 to 2006. It later performed precision strike missions once it was integrated with LANTIRN.[2] It was developed after the collapse of the F-111B project, and was the first of the American teen-series fighters which were designed incorporating the experience of air combat in Vietnam against MiGs.

I take it back again...definately F-18s. There are a few Tomcats to the NE with their wings swept, though.

Never mind...the angle of the photo made them look different. Sorry :)

I'm pretty sure those are F-18 Hornets. F-14's don't have angled stabalizers, they are vertical like the F-15.
