I know the F-18 could destroy F-111 in a dogfight.. but I want to see the Hornet carry all the jamming and bombing gear the F-111 has. It could never do it. The F-111 is 30 years old because it's a damn good plane and does the mission, not because people are cheap. The hornet, as you know, doesn't even have half the legacy of this aircraft.

How could you even compare Australia to the UK... Australia is soooo much better, and even if they are 30 years obsolete, they still do better than the piece of crap some people call the F/A-18

Carbon wouldnt be safer... the impact damage would be the same
only in longitudinal strength it would be better as fiberglass and that advantage
doesnt matter for impact damages

it's absurd that the UK still uses F-111's that are 30 years obsolete.
