Will FA-18C Continue with development now that F-14 is on the horizon

Why Harpoon is in red? Cancelled?

The F-14 is my all time fave jet by a large margin. Everyone at our squadron is looking forward to flying it.

 

However the Hornet has an incredible array of weapons and more advanced and interesting avionics.

 

It’s really just the greatest time ever for flight sims, there’ll be plenty of flying of both F-14 and F/A-18 (and Huey!) at the Stingers for the next decade I’m sure.

Wags in response to F-16 questions:

 

Our focus is on the Hornet. Please do not expect any Viper news until next year at the earlist.

Jar is correct. Get both. Don't be a dummy. Be more like Jar.

 

 

I have given up expensive Scotch whiskey in order to justify the expense of these two outstanding stalwarts of Naval Aviation.

 

 

That is all. Carry On.

The reason for asking is that it seems my squadron has F-14 fever and a lot are dropping the F-18 the moment the F-14 comes out.

 

Why, do they have short attention spans? Or can't they handle more than one platform?
