Boeing FA-18EF Super Hornet (Modular Airframe)

This is just a simple DYI kit of the Super Hornet, where you, the one who downloaded this creation can replace the front fuselage and cockpits on the model with the Foxtrot two-seat fuselage, alongside several instrument panels from the original (which is currently on the Foxtrot fuselage), the Block III and the Advanced Super Hornet.

What's new? Well, I simply improved the flight characteristics for better maneuverability, gave it a powerful engine, made new twin vertical stabilizers, enlarged the LERX and is almost compatible with any weapons made by other creators. Very modular and versatile, I have to say.

The Same Main Controls and Activation Groups as most of my Super Hornets:
A & D = Ailerons
W & S = Elevators
Q & E = Rudder
AG1 = Arrestor Hook
AG2 = Folding Wings
AG3 = Flaps Down
AG4 = Air Brake
AG5 & AG6 = Drop Those Tax Payer Funded Weapons Systems
AG7 = Retract The Catapult Launch Bar
AG8 = Master Arm and Activate AOA Limiter
VTOL Down = Locks the control surfaces into position
Trim = For Trim Controls
Landing Gear = Gears and Cockpit Raiser
Brake = Aerodynamic Deflection Rudders

Note: I will be having my PC fixed for a few days, so enjoy this creation until I get back... Have a nice day...
