*IMPORTANT NOTE- LOOK AT TOOLBAR GUIDE FOR CORRECT OPERATION*
*IMPORTANT NOTE 2- YOU WILL NEED AT LEAST 40 LARGE GRID BLOCKS RUNWAY FOR TAKEOFF ROLL*

The F/A-18F Super Hornet is a tandem-seat, twin-engine CATOBAR multirole fighter. Modified from the famous McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet, it makes up the fighter backbone of the U.S. Navy. The Super Hornet features low radar cross section design, strike capability, and high manueverability. Over 600 F/A-18 Super Hornets of all types have been manufactured, and are in service with Australia and the United States.

This replica is painted as the flag aircraft of VAQ-131 Lancers Electronic Attack squadron, which is an EA-18G Growler. It is armed with 4x AIM-120 AMRAAM homing missiles, and 2x Mk 82 free-fall bombs. It features realistic (well, about as close as you can get to "realistic" in SE) aerodynamic performance and thrust-weight ratio.

Thanks to Alec/KDY, it also has a system that extends airbrakes, reverse thrust, and parachutes automatically for landing.
