This is an enormous logical leap, don't you think? They've said they've been working on the 18 for a very long time. Whenever people complain that the F/A-18 is being back-burnered in favor of, say, WWII birds (don't count me among their numbers), the response is usually that ED can walk and chew gum at the same time, and that we don't really have any inkling about how things are prioritized internally. (I agree with this assessment.)
Nowhere in the update does it say that ED is currently working on a map for the Hornet module. Wags said that and other additional assets need to be created.
I'm just saying, this kind of speculation has gotten us into trouble before. Based on the supplied screens and the additional assets that need to be created (carrier, carrier ops, new map), do we all think it's likely we're going to see this before May? Really?
