Superhornet Takeoff

I like this video because at the vantage point it was taken it really gives you a good idea of the F/A-18F's acceleration and ability to leap off the ground in such a short distance plus you just can't beat that soundtrack!

Please...we've got better aerodynamic control laws programmed into our jets now...why would we want Russian aerodynamics?

Pitch control people, and uprated engines, and bigger wing= awesomeness No F-14 can do that, so what's with the gayness? I know, airshow load, but still pretty awesome, I wish there would be a plane with Russian aerodynamics and Amercan engines, that thing would be a frickin UFO. Hmm, come to think about it, those UFO reports.... Okay, something like that has probably flown a decade or two ago.
