The Walker Family spy ring gave a massive amount of top secret information to the Russians during the years they were actively spying for them. The ring leader, John Walker, enlisted his son Michael, who was an enlisted man stationed with VF102 and the USS Nimitz, to join the effort. Michael stole thousands of messages and documents that seriously impacted the F14's ability to fight.
