Re: Greatest Fighters

They're not separate wings, they are "chines" that are part of the main wings.

Its a super hornet.

Thank webbie for the other pic, the reason why it might look so strange is because it's on fire and about to crash.

Not so sure whether its a super hornet though, the chines looked larger due to it's high approach stance.

Could be an ordinary "bug"

Its not hornet, its F-18c/d. The chines are long and narrow whereas the hornet e/f version has long but little wider chines. Also notice the intakes?

You mean it's not a super hornet?
