--------->IMPORTANT READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE DOWNLOADING<----------


AG 1 Controls the rotations of the wings
AG 2 Controls the Flaps
AG 3 Activates/Deactivates the afterburner
AG 4 Controls the arresting hook
AG 5 Detach the fuel tank
AG 6 Jettison
AG 7 On/Off Formation lights
AG 8 Off/On Navigation lights
If the wings retract and the flaps deploy at the start
do not freak out the plane does not have a consciousness and is not alive...
at least that's what it told me when i talked to it o_O


If you don't like the Canopy Color, feel free to change it it's the very last Palette


If you see a bolt 1 inch far from where it should be, it's ok i'm not an AI i make mistakes :)


I would love to hear your feedback on this plane.


Nothing much to say about it, it's basically a quick build for me XD
because i worked on it for less than 24 hours.
Has realistic wing shape, realistic control surfaces, flaps and flaperons, arresting hook, feul pod, realistic weaponry (i wanted to keep it as low part as possible so the sidewinders are just stock guardians), custom engine nozzle, realistic exhaust, afterburner, realistic landing gear with realistic suspension and realistic thingamajingeys, and it's pretty close to the real size.


Enjoy, -Sos :3

    This is very, very good. I think it's still one of, if not the best Super Hornets in SimplePlanes.

    Yes but I tried intergrading onto the crafts CAT bar and the game doesn’t like it @Brields95

    @RYAviation have you tried using the vanilla cat bar?

    I think it’s the physics of the game not liking me using the cat bar built on the plane Because it will most likely rip it off break the whole plane or work just fine plus you can’t throttle up with it engaged @Brields95

    @RYAviation I'm having the same issue and I think it's an issue with either the weight and ballence of the plane or it's a SP issue

    OOh maybe you can make the arresting hook have a lot of friction so I.T can help stop the jet on the carrier because I personally have a hard time landing without stalling and without going to fast where I over shoot

    @Mithrandir rip it didn't do that before
    just remove the fuselage fins from the missiles and it'll be allright
    If it still does that just grab the missile and delete the detacher then add the missile back into it's place

    The missile just can't hit the target, loses control when it 's nearly hit @Sauce
