Nice. Makes one wonder how incredible it would have looked if the TOS Enterprise had visited a world like this during a Remastered episode of the classic series.
The Super Hornet is easily one of the best fighters on earth. I'd put one of her up against a current Russian Flanker or Fulcrum any day of the week.
I agree. It's a very under-appreciated aircraft. And the Growler is just badass. I just prefer the way the classic [C] looks. The bigger intakes as I mentioned and the angler LEX just make it look a bit more boxy and less elegant.
