Talk to me, Rooster...

Introducing the F/A-18F Super Hornet, a carrier-based tandem-seat multirole fighter aircraft...

This was in the making when I was making the Super Hornet. The tandem seat design makes it on par with the Tomcat. When designing the cockpit, I tried using EngineerOtaku's cockpit style prior to the introduction of the glass fuselage and thought it would bring some nostalgia. It has new intakes and remastered some of the mistakes of the F/A-18E Super Hornet that I made a few weeks back, yet it still retains the same air-to-air loadout (also removed the centerline drop tank).
