SFP1Ace 33 Posted June 26, 2013 Interesting, it looks like they took the Silent Eagle approach with this one... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+EricJ 4,245 Posted June 26, 2013 Nobody as far as I know is working on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emresukhoi 444 Posted June 26, 2013 Erik looks like you had this job :) You're the expert on F-18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+EricJ 4,245 Posted June 26, 2013 Thanks.. but only to a degree unfortunately. Anyway, its been brought up but there so far isn't any plans to as it's still (AFAIK anyway) being tested by the Navy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macelena 1,070 Posted June 26, 2013 IRL, if it is affordable, it might work as a technology demonstrator for further Rhino upgrades. In game, much of its tech can´t be replicated properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emresukhoi 444 Posted June 26, 2013 Can I ask why not download any files you can not download the file today? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted June 26, 2013 This is like the Silent Eagle, or the F-16XL, or the Tomcat 21, or the F-20, or the A-7F, or any of a number of proposed upgrades that never got farther than a couple of flying examples if they were lucky. It's funny that they've used up to the G, making this H, because your first instinct is to say "Oh, H is for Hump. My humps. My Hornet's lady bumps." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gabravo2005 1 Posted June 28, 2013 So E/F are the Super Hornets, H shall be Amazing Hornet? Superb Hornet? Super Duper Hornet? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SFP1Ace 33 Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Wicked Hornet! No, I've got a better one: HORNY HORNET!!! Edited June 28, 2013 by SFP1Ace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted June 28, 2013 Officially it's Advanced Super Hornet. Score one for the marketing team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+allenjb42 4,234 Posted June 28, 2013 And I thought it was just an export version for Greece! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MigBuster 2,884 Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Thought the H was taken Edited June 28, 2013 by MigBuster 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Centurion-1 1,228 Posted July 1, 2013 LOL @ MigBuster Seriously though, the conformal fuel tanks make the SH look better.. probably makes it even less agile tho.. The weapon pod looks like ass though and does not appear to hold very much. I'd still pick this over the F-35C. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted July 1, 2013 Looks like the pod holds 2 AMRAAMs or SDBs. No, certainly not a large payload, but if you want that you send a B-2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Dave 2,322 Posted July 1, 2013 Can I ask why not download any files you can not download the file today? Erik is working on the site. Upgrading it etc etc etc.....keep your shirt on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+EricJ 4,245 Posted July 1, 2013 Looks like the pod holds 2 AMRAAMs or SDBs. No, certainly not a large payload, but if you want that you send a B-2. It's supposed to hold four AMRAAMs or four GBU-38 JDAMs if my mind serves me correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ValAstur 1,294 Posted July 1, 2013 If an export version for Greece is desired, I can work it out. Just gimme some time. Although the ASH would be an interesting addition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+EricJ 4,245 Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) Actually we're talking about the real world aircraft this time (it's assumed that the "H" version are the new versions of the Super Hornet) but then again it'd probably look pretty cool in Greek camo...

ValAstur 1,294 Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) I knew that we were talkin' about the real world. I was just referring to an earlier post. Edited July 1, 2013 by ValAstur 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted July 2, 2013 So, if Greece bought that model...would it be the F/A-18HH? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+CrazyhorseB34 937 Posted July 2, 2013 Why does Greece "collect" jets. No wonder they are broke. F-16's, M2K, and Super Dupper Hornet is quite a mix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Centurion-1 1,228 Posted July 2, 2013 Well, the F-18H would be a good replacement for the A-7 and F-4 when they get too old, something abit heavier and more... substantial than the F-16 or M2K. But yeah, if you have financial problems new fighter jets should probably not be the first thing or your agenda. I can't see Finland ever affording to replace our classic Hornets the way the prices keep rising.. Maybe JF17? Lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
