F-18 in action - Canadian Air Force

A tribute I made to the Canadian Air Force and the CF-18 Hornet wich will be replace by the F-35 in a couple of years.
The song is Are You Ready from AC/DC
The clips come from the tv show Jetstream aired on discovery channel.
Thanks for Watching. Don't forget to suscribe.

I planning on making another video and I would like to know if you have suggestions for the music and the airplane :) thx!

[MissLin22]

@PixeletSushi yes please if you don't mind... the F-35 Lighning II is alomost as excellent as the song What you're doing by- Rush They'd go well together. Finding in-action footoage would be difficult one may think...

[PixeletSushi]

@MissLin22 So since Canada will get some F-35 in a near future, I decided to make a new vid on them! I'm still not sure for the music but I'll check if yours can be good for the job!

@PixeletSushi Great video buddy!

@GangsterHutterite I compare it to carrying a gun or condom around. I would rather have it and not need it, then need it and not have it. The SH also allowed for further modernization by adding close to 3 extra feet to the fuselage just to allow for more fuel and future avionics and on internal fuel has greater range. I still hold that the government is pissing away our money on this program. In the end, yes the F35 is the superior fighter. But it is unnecessary for the needs of the military.

we need a stronger airforce and a goddamn decent navy but i gotta admit, this vid makes me wanna join the forces anyways

@Ehyohh Stealth doesn't mean shit if you're flying dirty as a Superhornet does.

The one-engine "issue" is grossly overstated. The F135 is a damn good engine, it has gone a full 8000lbs of thrust over its limit and still ran fine (51000lbs!). Is having 2 engines that are 99.99% reliable really that much better then 1 engine 99.999% reliable?

F-35 has other great features that are never mentioned, like a radar that is networked with everything in 100 miles. Lightning > Super Hornet.

[Ehyohh]

@GangsterHutterite Stealth is completely irrelevant to the RCAF. Canada isn't the country to launch stealth attacks, it's just not what we do (look into our military history and find a RCAF stealth attack). The single engine of the F-35 is also a hazard for arctic patrols as if it burns out, your fucked. The SH has increased range, 2 more hardpoints, greater agility, speed and survivability and a reduced radar cross section making it one of the most stealthy multipurpose fighters in use. GG.

[GangsterHutterite]

@Ehyohh Super Hornets are a stupid financial decision. Less range, worse stealth, less advanced then the F-35. I'd rather spend a whole bunch of money now and retire the planes in 2045 then a fair amount now and retire by 2030. US Navy is retiring Super Hornets by 2030 fyi.

[Ehyohh]

Gov should of just purchased a lot of modern super hornets. f35 arnt necessary for Canada's military.

[MrSherlockWatson]

these guys must get all the girls eh?
