    Ah, the good old Tornado ADV with it's 'Blue Circle' concrete ballast in the nose as the radar took so long to develop. Pilots were quoted as saying that it was like dogfighting in a double-decker London bus :)

      Pahaha. Best comment 😂👍
      They were said to appreciate its many modes. Specifically its look down shoot down capability amongst clutter

    "The F-18's massive fuel load...."WTF! The lack of unrefuelled range of early F-18 models was the single biggest flaw of the aircraft! This was only overcome by the E-and F-models which were enlarged by 25% compared to early models A-D. Fun Fact: the Soviets copied this mistake with the Mig-29, which was notoriously short-legged and later corrected it with the MiG-35.

      The amount of fuel it could carry wasn't the problem... It's the consumption. The legacy hornet did carry a massive fuel load.
