The super hornet like its name is a superb mutirole aircraft. Its sensors and helmet mounted sight plus missiles make its a very lethal fighter. It's air to ground arrays of munitions makes it an excellent attack aircraft. Harpoons completes it as a sea or carrier strike aircraft.
To add to this, it's design is based on the proven concept of earlier and smaller F18. Any shortfall of earlier model are addressed and corrected through this larger version. This makes the super hornet cheap by any standard, western or even eastern.
Like it has not enough of compliments already, it has a electronics warfare version called Growler.
Any airforce in the world would love to have such an aircraft, one that does everything quite weLl, comes at a competitive price, easy as well cost effective to operate and maintain (since one can operate a single type aircraft that does all).
But why is it apart from US it has only manage to sell only 24 copies???
NO SOURCE CODE!!!
