Are AOA colors accurate for the tomcat?

Are the AOA colors drawn in the image accurate for the tomcat? Or are they based off of the super carrier data which is currently only calibrated for the Hornet?

To answer my own question, it uses a set of data that looks to be calibrated for the hornet. If pull requests are accepted I may be able to add data for the tomcat as well.

I personally don't fly the Tomcat, so I cannot vouch for the data being correct. The only aircraft specific data is the hook position and glide slope. I am confident that the hook position is correct, but maybe the glide slope is different - I am pretty sure that I just copied it over from the Hornet. You can find the data here: https://github.com/DCS-gRPC/lso/blob/main/src/data.rs#L146-L152
I am accepting PRs.

But I guess this is what needs to be different for the Tomcat (not handled as being aircraft specific right now)? https://github.com/DCS-gRPC/lso/blob/main/src/draw.rs#L355-L373

The AoA for the tomcat and T-45 are different than the F-18. For the tomcat, an on speed approach will always read as slow currently since the tomcat lands at 15 units. I have a fork with the work done, it compiled (with sources cited), I just need to do a flight to test it.

PR up with implementation for the F-14 after testing to verify functionality.
