Hey can you do a dogfight between a legacy F/A-18 Hornet and an F/A-18 Super Hornet to see how each one compares to the other?

Sometimes I feel a little sad when I see a missile that has lost all its energy, it's just a sad little guy that wants a hug at that point.

Big, explosive hug.

The eyeballs kill me every time 😂😂 👀

Nicely done. You evaded four(?) R-77 missiles today to complete your mission, and got the two bogeys shooting at you in the bargain. You earned your pay today, man.

Thank you for continuing to enlarge your radar screen. I noticed in this video you even enlarged the screen while in air-to-ground. These F/A air assault videos are fantastic! I think putting together a series of what an American air assault would look like from beginning to “end”, with a bombing campaign, to air sanitize, to SEAD, to A-10 or possibly now F-35, etc. would be a great series. IMO.

New GS video.... There goes my productivity for the day :)

I love the Rhino content. I think this is one of the funnest fighters to watch.

Anyone else pucker up when GS starts feeling confident? Just me, ok, I’ll own it. That second bandit meeting his shadow was quite satisfying! Great strike bud. Better video! And a landing to tie everything together! Keep up the outstanding content brother man! Love and respect!🫡 🫡

Those eyes keep jump scaring me 😂

Not as much of a jump-scare as "I think we're ok now" *bang*

I think it’d be interesting to have you elaborate more on when to use the different type of radar scanning modes, like which ones work better for different situations and how to read the radar screen. 👍

I love love LOVE how you now give the enemies perspective. In flight. Missile launches etc. and the glorious cinematic landing was a nice victory lap.

GS's eyeballs living rent free in my nightmares

Perform a ground target attack mission using the F35 in stealth mode, thank you, have a good flight

Super hard turn aim 120d!

Them eyeballs bro, it's funny af but at the same time it's like "WTF!?"

Just imagine working as ground crew at a civilian airport and on your shift, a Super Hornet touches down unexpectedly. lol It would make my year. Great vid as always. Keep these mission vids coming. Well done.

It’s actually pretty amazing that the wings are creating lift, moving you around, AND carrying all that weight. Impressive

What would be cool is a blind mission where awacs wouldn't be able to assist and have to go behind enemies lines to destroy two ground to air outpost and then a major radar installation so the rest of the allies can move forward? There are also enemy aircraft. Your allowed to use any aircraft.

The wheels touching down on the runway right as the music dropped was sweet.

09:40 Those eyeballs look crazy LOL :D Thank you for another, as always, great video and great explanations! BR //M

I am a simple man .In see an growling sidewinder in f 18, I click.

Love it when you finish with a landing. Doesn't matter where you start, but for some reason a full landing just hits the spot, lol. You have done a great job with the channel, and with your skills. You are an inspiration to people like me trying to learn.

Seeing your eyeballs again.... 😂

When he said "I think we're good" how many of us thought... Yeah?

It was like a “new SAM site” unboxing video at 0:52

Those eyeballs 👀👀

I can't believe I catch myself glued to the screen, as though I were watching a movie, or perhaps even footage from an actual engagement... And it's totally riveting, an emotional roller-coaster... And beyond the entertainment value, I'm actually learning things along the way, and often without you having to spell things out. For instance, in this particular video, I got a sense for the Super Hornet's SHARP and how it could be used in tandem with JDAMs to absolutely devastating effect. Prior to this, I really had no idea of the Super Hornet's targeting capabilities (optical targeting system, cockpit display, integration of useful and relevant target/area information onto the cockpit display, etc), nor how all of these system came together with the JDAM (it took me this long to realize why a couple decades ago they started calling these things "smart bombs" -- they really are incredibly advanced and capable munitions, especially when combined with a powerful avionics suite)... Watching that bombing attack really put everything into proper context and illustrated the truly shocking efficacy of modern multirole fighter aircraft. And as if that weren't already impressive enough, it bears reminding that the bombing mission was executed *after* the F/A-18F had already dispatched a couple of Flankers in a dizzying and devastating series of BVR engagements. And this is in a "4th generation" aircraft. It seems so incredibly capable and advanced, one can't help but wonder how on earth could there be an entire range of aircraft that are sufficiently advanced relative to those such as the Super Hornet that they qualify to be described as an entirely new generation of fighters. Part of me almost can't believe that you could offer significant improvements on what already borders on magical powers. But I digress. Anyway, I've been a fan for a while, and I can't miss any of your new releases. You're really good at what you do, and the effort that you put in is apparent and truly comes through in the quality of content you release. Thanks again for another banger. Keep up the good work, dude.

Thank you for the amazing comment, I appreciate it very much. Thank you again, Sincerely. Much Love.

Always have loved the way the Hornets gear comes down.

Thank you for another amazing video/mission. Was a fan of the F-14 Tomcat. Before and after “Top Gun” and discovering F-18 Hornet after finding out about it replaced The Tomcat and after watching “Behind Enemy Lines” with Gene Hackman. Then I saw the trailer for “Top Gun Maverick” and watching the “canyon run in Top Gun Maverick” and I was blown away by the speed and maneuverability of the aircraft. Keep up the great work on the videos/ missions.

Except it's not nearly as fast.

The disembodied eyeballs are back. Spooky.

Dude that R-77M was kind of eternal for me I was more concerned than you.

What about a US Navy vs US AF. F/A18 and F14 for the Navy and F15 and F16 for the AF.

I love the new hornet vids! Learning it atm.

I love the hornet videos, it's an awesome demonstration of how capable it is.

I really love those hornet videos ❤

yeah, them eyeballs are freaky!

I love the goo-goo eyes!

I could tell by your eyes that you were really scared of getting hit by that missile.

Love the vid! The missile chase at the end reminded me of Behind Enemy Lines lol

F18 SUPER Hornet is a great Fighter Jets can be launch from a Carrier or take off from the ground .

Tomcatters Super Hornet! Nice work on the Flankers.

Patriot vs. six Su-34s and Su-35s next please.

gorgeous plane. you still cant beat the f14, 15, 16 & 18 for looks. america was smokin some pretty good shit when they came up with them.

ngl when you said 'i think we're good' while outrunning the r77 i fully expected you to explode immediately...

The eyeballs lol

Absolutely loving all the Super Hornet content. Great work as always GS.

I often use the expression "this is gonna make your eyes explode" when im about to surprise somone, i never could've imagined it would be so applicable to DCS

Love the runway beauty shots! Great video. 👍

I really like the way you explain what you are doing. Makes everything so much easier to understand.

12:28 damn I didn't know AMRAAMs could turn like that... Thats crazy

Dope videos! Love the PIP of the targeting pod video. Also your outro music gives chills!

Please do a recreation of the BF3 F-18 mission “Going Hunting”

Fantastic editing give them a raise! Keep up the great videos

Just got home from work, was about to look up your channel, but this was already waiting for me on my homepage!

GS, your editing is second to none for DCS videos. A small suggestion: could you group all of your tutorial videos into one subgroup on your channel? It would make it so much easier to locate them so that we mere mortals can learn from your experience more efficiently? Thank you for all you do.

wooo cant wait to watch another of your epic vids ;D

The way the amraam that hot the second guy moved was terrifying.

Still can't get over the eyes being the only thing of the pilot that renders.

amazing vid as always! my only pet peeve is that strobe light being on throughout the engagement...

Gotta love the hornet, has to be one of the most versatile fighter jets around.

These scenarios are great 👍 keep up the quality work 👏

You just gotta love the F18 man

Another cool video. A lot of Super Hornet videos lately which are cool, but wondering if you had a choice between the Super Hornet and the Strike Eagle, which one would you rather fly for these strike missions? Just curious...

Another very fun video. Grest job GS!

The eyes are so goddam scary 😂😂

That amraam turn at 12:26 really surprised me, I didn't expect it to turn sharply like that at that speed.

Love the content, hope we get to see some F15 E Strike Eagle videos in this format sometime soon.

“Dont want to destroy the planes” proceeds to obliterate both planes with the JDAMS

13:29..."I've never had to run from a missile for soooo long." It's a good thing you didn't have a 'Jester' or he would've been LONG GONE!

was waiting for this one. very nice

The Superhornet is my favorite ⚔️

I love the all black paint job on the Flankers. It reminds me of the "MiG-28s" from Top Gun.

Well played as always.

DUDE! You're flying under my dad's colors when he flew F4s! Super cool!

The Desert Storm reference is true. And he did it with Sparrows. Bad Ass!

12:24 woah can missiles really do that o.O the way it turned like that is scary

Great Flying my man!

Another great mission! Where’s the ol’ A-10 🐗 been hiding?

It's simple: New GrowlingSidewinder video = great day

Those Sukhois are pretty af, goddamn

Missile technology is TRULY incredible!

I'd like to see if the phoenix missile, or any newer missile could take down a SR-71 if a head-on shot is fired. Basically you start off head to head like a dogfight video but farther apart. SR-71 at altitude and cruising speed. Same thing for the launching aircraft. Then you fire the missile and see if it can climb to altitude and hit the SR-71. If it can, start off the video showing that. Then fly the SR-71 to evade and the launch aircraft could keep shooting. Would be kind of fun.

Great mission very fun to watch, keep uop the good workl=)

1:08 THOSE GUYS ARE ACES!!!!

never been 2 hours after upload here, still a banger like usual

Great mission. GS rocks

Freaking awesome!

Great once again

I see you keeping your eyes on the situation.
