The USAF and USMC needs to dump the F-35 and go with Super Hornets. At least they work.
Which, of course, will screw all the people we suckered into buying into the F-35 program. I guess we need to provide F/A-18s to them as well. Though I don’t know what the UK will do with their V/STOL carriers.

Another UK missile we adopted..Hellfire.

So now we have hellfire and brimstone missiles in the inventory?

I'm 54 yrs. old and worked for Hughes at NAS Lemoore assembling, operating, and maintaining the F/A-18 Weapons trainers and flight simulators which trained the first operational flight crews for the first work up cruise on the Connie CV-64, as they transitioned from A-7's, some Marines from the last F4's, transfers from A-6's and can remember modifying the 2E7's and OFT's to match upgraded lot numbers and than going from A models to B models to C and D models, and now they call them legacy Hornet's.

The Connie is gone, VFA125 disbanded, and now I feel my age, and many of the old birds are still flying! Don't think Shifty made admiral, Wheels up Wesh beached the Enterprise, Spiker was down in Iraq, and everyone wanted to transfer to Canoe Bay.

What is a “Dual Mode” missile ?
