Hi guys I am back with my new F/A-18E on which I was working for a 2 weeks. Tu-4 will be launched later, maybe a week or so :)

F/A-18E Super Hornet

The Boeing F/A-18E and F/A-18F Super Hornet are twin-engine, carrier-capable, multirole fighter aircraft variants based on the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet. The F/A-18E single-seat and F/A-18F tandem-seat variants are larger and more advanced derivatives of the F/A-18C and D Hornet.

    Well I guess one thing would be landing gear, they really should be moved right behind the com. As close as possible, and the inlets looks to far back but I could be wrong. @RadiumOxide

    Tbh fixing the landing gear is kinda pain in my ass, but i solve it by disable all the suspension and re attact the parts, also when i see the CoM, i think its heavy on the backside, so i decide to check all the fuselage until i relize "wait this is other guy plane that mean the engine mass still 1" then i decide to kill engine weight and its became stable and not became an SU-30

    @RadiumOxide download to upvote ratio is a bit weird, mostly because guests download planes all the time
    BTW don't worry about the Thrust to weight ratio thing, even still this does need a bit of work

    @RadiumOxide You didn't though, Thrust to weight is wayy over the top, the sizing isn't big enough and the stats aren't up to date (unless you got the image a while ago)
    But pleaaase work on this stuff
