McDonnell Douglas F/A-18F Super Hornet [DEPRECATED]

WORKING ON A MISSION SET FOR THIS AIRCRAFT

Undoubtedly, the Super Hornet is the king of 21st Century Carrier Based Aircraft, and, I'm happy to introduce my version of it.

First flown in 1995, the Super Hornet variants completely redesigned their slimmer, slightly smaller brothers, the F-18A, B, and C variants. The US Navy chose the Super Hornets in favor of upgrading the now-infamous F-14 Tomcat, and in the early 1990s, started the process of comprising the Navy's Carrier Air Wings completely of Hornets and Super Hornets.

This specific aircraft is from VFA-213 "Blacklions", from Carrier Air Wing Eight, and is the aircraft of the squadron's Commanding Officer.

This aircraft was built around the AFDS/AFAS Standard, so make sure to use that! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1636598202


This aircraft was actually initially built extremely quickly, but after a week of intensive flight testing, review, and reworks, I've finally delivered. This aircraft is fully 1:1, with realistic design features, such as the combination of aileron function with elevators, for enhanced manueverability.

The cockpit design is intended to emulate the Real F/A-18F as closely as possible, whilst simultaneously offering maximum visibility.

The aircraft can be flown with two people, the WSO isn't useless, and provides critical function when it comes to weapons deployment. If you have a responsible WSO, who can learn quickly, it's extremely fun.

Startup is extremely simple, on my F/A-18F.

1. Enter Aircraft (Via Cockpit)
   
2. Close Canopy
   
3. Disable Gear Brakes (Front Right)

I plan on supporting this aircraft into the near future, with possible new additions to come, of a similar theme.

Built at the same time as Woodspeople's General Dynamics F-16C! Check it out! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1636575007

best enjoyed while dropping bombs and blasting DCS f-14 soundtrack "anytime, baby!"

This aircraft took quite some time to build, let me know what you think!

Please let me know about any suggestions/bugs. Thanks!
