Pretty much an almost exact replica.

I've never looked at so many F-18 pictures and videos until I made this. I'm 95% sure that it is 80-85% accurate in details and shape.

AG:1=Carrier Hook
AG:2=Airbrake
AG:3=Formation Lights
AG:4=Nav Lights
AG:5=Arm Weapons
AG:6=Shoot the stuffsss
AG:7=AfterBurner
AG:8=Flaperons/Ailerons

The Rudder is also a brake but separate from the actual airbrake, and they aid the ailerons and the tailerons when performing rolls. With the horizontal stabilizers, the flaps also automatically move with them to aid in pitch control and stuff like that.

Im sorry if it's not as smooth aerodynamically but I'm not that good with this game yet but it does look nice. The airbrake mechanically works like the real thing. Best looking F/A-18 C variant I've seen here so far pretty noice.
Hope you like it.

    I think the only plane where it's acceptable to have default landing gear is the F-18 cuz the gear is based straight off one lol @edensk

    Im sorry if it's not as smooth aerodynamically You serious? I mean this is just awesome - especially so as you aren't even familiar with the game, as stated in your description of this build.

    @RCalabraro yeah planning on it, although the high AoA and cobra maneuverability of that would be hard to do in simpleplanes.

    @JMAK5627 Originally i didn't want this to pass 500 parts so I didn't give it custom gear but it still passed anyway
