Regarding the F-15 and an F-14 in a 1 v 1 dogfight, actually, the F-15 cannot
easily defeat the F-14.  They're more pon equal ground with the difference
being in the quality of the pilot.  F-14 Tomcats have been known to defeat
F-15 Eagles in dogfights in 1 v 1, or multiple.  One of the outstanding
reasons for this is the F-14 Tomcat's ability to bat-turn among its
other maneuverability factors.
