It still doesn't have ailerons in the traditional sense, in fact the F-14 is capable of rolling with its full moving horizontal stabilizer alone. As for flaps and flaperons, they are different things.
F-14 does have flaps, but not flaperons. I mentioned flaperons only because the earlier version I built did have flaperons to supplement the lack of pitch authority. I simply haven't changed the description text since upload.

The F-14 uses a spoiler as opposed to traditional ailerons.
