ruddy122 Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 I know there are Super Hornet Mods but some MODS require you to kill the F/A-18C entirely and replace it with the Super Hornet What are the differences between an early Super Hornet and the F/A-18C?

Hulkbust44 Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 For the DCS mod, just the external model and cockpit displays color. Also the texture on the UFC was changed to make it look like a digital one.Mobius708 1

Swift. Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 Is this question about the differences between the DCS Modded Superhornet and the DCS Hornet. Or between the actual Superhornet and actual Hornet? 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2

Vekkinho Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 So what's the difference? Looks only I guess! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
F-2 Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 Compared to our hornet with the 402 engines the Super hornet has worse STR, loses energy faster, and has much slower acceleration. Avionics are about the same between our hornet and a block I super hornet, later super hornets have much more advanced systems. The super hornet has much better range and payload. https://books.google.com/books?id=XCcLAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA30&lpg=PA30&dq=F/A-18E+sustained+turn&source=bl&ots=VDPtcyELXn&sig=UJf5CawaEWf0_qeoPm5grVY5xT4&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CDkQ6AEwBWoVChMI5OyCgpmLyQIVTzqICh1-KQ9S#v=onepage&q=F%2FA-18E sustained turn&f=false its worth pointing out our hornet is basically the Rolls Royce of hornets. With the old F404-ge-400 engines the old hornets where something of a dog and markedly worse on all the above mentioned perimeters. The High AoA that’s the hornets bread and butter in DCS actually only came about in 2003-2004 with the 10.7 fly by wire software update, the super hornet had this from day one. The Hornet was fairly unremarkable as a fighter till the combined engine and fly-by-wire update, before that it was its cutting edge avionics and multi mission capabilities that made it a big deal.
