F-18E Super Hornet Taking off

[inspectorcritic]

THIS IS SUPERIOR AIR TO CARRIER-THIS IS SUPERIOR AIR TO CARRIER: I JUST COLLECTED 3 MORE ACES AND KISS ONE OF YOUR SHIPS TO THE SEA BOTTOM CAN YOU RE-ADJUST MY ODDS, PLEASE; OVER?

[Leaf13]

Screw all the pissy little squabblers. Great SQ on this vid - thanks!

[frotttiop]

thats why the usa go broke....

[uboobz1]

Correct! The Super Hornet IS a 'Navy' plane. NOT an Air Force plane. The Air Force

flys the F-15 Eagle and the F-16 Falcon.

[wolfsravenfsx]

all the dumb asses that say the Super hornet is for the Air force you ass is wrong the Navy uses them the Air force never had em and never will they use the F-15 and F-22

[JUFFAIR101]

@wolfsravenfsx

Why does the USAF doent use Super hornets?

are they bad or weak ?

[wolfsravenfsx]

@JUFFAIR101 No the Super hornet is not bad or weak they just wanted to go to the F-22

[chris11057]

@wolfsravenfsx Originally, the f-18 and f-16 were competing for the Airforce contract. Airforce picked the 16 and the neavy didnt want to 18 to go to waste so they bough that contract. Later, the superhornet was developed as an advanced version of the F/A-18.

[wolfsravenfsx]

@chris11057 I know that.

[k2477456]

@chris11057 the navy chose the hornet family because it is twin engine and it wont lose all power over the water and can return to the ship the army took the falcon family after the navy took the hornet

[Snarekid19]

@k2477456 Falcon Family? you mean the F-16?? The Army doesn' t have Fighter Jets. They have attack helicopters.

[chris11057]

@k2477456 The airforce chose the f-16. the navy didnt want the 18 to go to waste so they purchased that afterwards.

[DANIAC262]

@chris11057 Here's a fun fact, the main reason the Air force chose the F-16 was the engine commonality it had with the F-15.

[cobrastatusify]

pooooooooop nuggettteettettts

[nicotipro1]

@chris11057 well it looks larger + the wing is a bit different from the hornet ,look ,

[sirben2]

0:24 at the bottom of the screen theres a A-6 Prowler

[theloofa]

Technically, the A-6 was the "Avenger" and had two seats

THAT was the EA-6B Prowler, the four-seat Electronic Attack variant

[oldfrend]

actually the A-6 was the Intruder. the only Avenger that i can think of is the GAU-8 antitank cannon on the A-10 warthog.

[1ohtaf1]

lol anti-tank cannon, i think its class name is a auto cannon.

[gryphus001]

@sirben2 its EA-6B prowler, if you say that's an A-6, then what everybody knows is A-6 intruder, they are different

[seskie]

Haha true.

[TexMarine13]

We got a sayin'...

"A bad day flyin beats the best day in a desk job".

[hatemf23]

except... you probably wont survive that day, or lose a limb...

[Msagr]

@TexMarine13 a bad day of flying kills you xD

[ChipAnnaChair]

No offense but that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard man. Not sure if you know this, but a bad day flying means you're DEAD. Nuff said.

[beroth1]

@TexMarine13 A bad day flyin' could mean you're dead though... Just sayin'.

[Ballpythondude420]

how is googling porn all day boring because you know thats all he does haha

[seskie]

Hehe I know I was kidding but hey at least you can probably by an unarmed F18 and have a runway in your backyard. LOL JK.

[seskie]

CEO of google is best job in the world.

[navymidclass15]

i agree bro,thats what i wanta do in a few yrs

[mmbbz]

fucken mindblowing

[sillythekid101]

wow, i seriously just talked with a guy about 3 hours ago that flew VFA-22s of the Reagan, plus my cousin was a nuclear mechanic on this ship. no lie.

[navy1092]

sorry and i dont even have ace combat

[eyesack9]

toenail

[navy1092]

thats a F-18 hornet not a super hornet

super hornets are in the air force

[xclusive2nc]

I'm sorry but you are mistaken... hornets and super hornets are basically navy and are also flown by marines.Strike eagles are airforce as well as the raptor

[CrotchRocket78]

On you on crack? Having a screen name of Navy1092 and saying a Super Hornet is an Airforce plane? You must not be from the US.

[chris11057]

yea why dont you just type superhornet into google and see what it comes up with. just because its in the airforce in ace combat doesnt mean thats real life...

[navyguardf18]

@chris11057 He might be talking about the Australian Airforce. I think that's what they use it for. Then again, this is a U.S Navy video, so, I'm not sure.

[chris11057]

@navyguardf18 The Australian airforce just recently started using the superhornet within the last few months.

[navyguardf18]

@chris11057 Yeah, I just like to take the losing side in arguments sometimes. lol Oh well.

[navycop102]

No the US Navy uses the Super Hornet its the addion to the hornet family.

[gbsons]

@navycop102 doesnt the Marine corps own some hornets as well?

[chris11057]

@gbsons Yea, they use some older "legacy" hornet models. Not the Super Hornet.

[ESIFaKiE]

@navycop102 Absolutely flawless English! 10/10, would read again.

[gbsons]

@navy1092 f 18 is in the Marine Corps as well and Im pretty sure the Navy owns some.

[wolfsravenfsx]

@gbsons Navy owns all of them...

[FSXMAO]

@navy1092 retard that's a U.S. Navy F/A-18E Super Hornet. The Chair Force doesn't have any F/A-18's...

[kirdyman]

@navy1092 oh dear

[Legendary588]

@navy1092 are you stupid?

[Wendigo127]

I cant wait to fly those f-18s!!!

[ricejuh]

the other plane is that a A6 intruder?

[chris11057]

thats an ea-6b prowler

[kai1100]

are you a pilot in the navy

[TimAaron]

thats not a super hornet.

[spins321]

yes it is

[gryphus001]

@TimAaron just look for the image of super hornet in google you dumb!

[ROber93usera]

[ashleynewman0515]

I was in VFA-22 from 2000-2004...Loved that command! Heard it has gotten better since then

[smithsweeney]

ha ha the prowler just getting ready i love the fa18

[myriam38593]

So who are you? I was in 22 for the longest time I use to work with SK1 Ko... so I'm just curious who you are?

[chris11057]

burke

[myriam38593]

I know you!

[chris11057]

I know you too lol. you werent in 22 for the longest time though. only like 4 months

[myriam38593]

WOOHOO Red cocks! It's all about 22!

[jorgemdllin]

that`s I like to see the ailerons moving,so good video

[mentalboy11]

lol, i do this in flight simulator! move your ailerons just before take off. then we launch catapults 2, 4 then 1, 2. except we like our F-14 tomcats... we dont want to give them up! :P

[timothyngim]

Why do the rear winglets wave about before take off? Are all fighter jets like that?

[chris11057]

the stabilators (rear winglets) will always move before a carrier launch. the pilot will move the control stick in circles to do a flight control check. the shooters (guys wearing white) make sure everything is moving smoothly then give the thumbs up for launch

[timothyngim]

Okay. SO unlike civilian aircraft, huh.

[redmustang03]

I heard you are getting an upgraded radar in the Superhornet. What the advantages in this new radar system in the Superhornet than the previous radar system. Do you miss the F-14 Tomcat even though it took a lot of maintance to put it back in the air?

[chris11057]

Well since it is so new, I cant really talk about any upgraded radar capabilities. Im sure you will be able to find information online as soon as its released. And although I would have loved to get a chance to work on the F-14s, I never did. It still was an unbelievable aircraft.

[timothyngim]

I dun see the catapaults

[chris11057]

look just forward of the nose landing gear. there is a white launch bar that comes down onto the catapult. the white thing on the deck is the catapult

[timothyngim]

Uh, okay. Do you work here? Are you a navy officer?

[chris11057]

no im not an officer. im a plane captain. youd see me in a brown shirt on the flight deck. I am in charge of the launch of the jets in my squadron.

[timothyngim]

Ok, s u r a navy pilot? Tats nice.
