The models E and F have been running against the F-35 (A and C models), and they lost. Remember that the F-18 has the possibility of striking beyond visual range, and the French Rafale took out the F-35 A.
It's a F/A-18E Super Hornet not a C. Note the announcer ID at the beginning and the large square intake at the start of the takeoff roll, the Charlie has a smaller, rounded intake. The Super Hornet and Growler are amazing aircraft.
I would not want to be in a super bug against a Su family or MiG family airframe... The 18c is a beast in a slow turning fight... but it would get own against another high alpha airframe.
this plane with thrust vectoring would be awesome
Super Hornet just showed everything that the F-35 cannot do...
Well if they get that close, the F-35 has indeed lost. Different kind of fighter, don't you know. Beyond line of sight versus dog fighter.

And you just said everything that an intelligent and informed person would not say about this.
One thing super hornet can’t do is hover .

Sorry but this is a F/A-18F Super Hornet. The E variant is a singleseater. The aircraft we saw in this video is a doubleseater. So it's the F variant.
Yeah you are correct, did not have my reading glasses on :). Good ordinance loadout, too.
I would not want to go up against a Rhino in a SU or Mig jet. The Super Hornet is a beast!
has there ever been one out up against a typhoon ?
Anthony Smith nice
