The US Navy retired the AIM-54 Phoenix in 2004, and the Tomcat kept flying without the Phoenix as a recon and strike platform until 22 Sep 2006.
The Iranians have also been strapping Hawk SAMs to the Tomcat. Can’t seem to upload pics now so have a look: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iriaf+f-14+hawk&t=brave&iax=images&ia=images
