I believe F-15s downed some MiG-29s or MiG-25s at ranges around 20nm.

Yes but what ranges did Iranian F-14As shoot down Iraqi MiGs. Was it in excess of the extreme AIM-120C kills that the F-15C got?

There is a reported kill by the F-14 against multiple drones at a range of 60 miles...

A kill is a kill is a kill... but this isnt the longest kill on record by one of these aircraft...

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the Phoenix missile the longest-range Air-To-Air missle in the world? And isn't the F-14 the only aircraft capable of fireing it?

I'm going F-16 because there are more of them in the world and CAG already said that the F-14 and F15 didn't have the longest range kill.

I dont know how any kill could be achieved with any other missile than the Phoenix at this range, so it would have to be the F14, but that would be too easy, must be something else.

Considering that an Israeli UAV got a kill against a MiG-21 without firing a weapon Im thinking about "other means" like destroying equipment maybe by jamming resulting in loss of control. No idea how that could be done, though.

I voted for the F15, but I still don't have any explanation.
