F-111 Aardvark was mainly used for nuclear detearance during the Cold War.
However this program was the one who "killed" the amazing TSR2 program, due to Australia's decision to buy the F-111.
In the early 70s, the americans discovered that the russians were having more advanced fighters than they thought before.
That's why the F14 Tomcat was no longer considered good for the USAF, and a new fighter was developed.
