This Martin-Baker seat is used in the F-14A Tomcat. A version of the GRU-7 designed for the A-6 Intruder, the main differences are in seat mounts and the shape of the overhead handle. This seat is a late model Mk. 7 family member and as a member of the GRU-7 family it shows the specially designed flatter main recovery parachute pack.
This seat uses virtually the same mechanical systems as the other Mk. 7 family of seats.
