classier perhaps... but "greater"?

i dunno.

seems like i saw a video somewhere (discovery wings channel perhaps) of an F-18 that went into a dogfight with a Crusader.

The crusader got chewed up and spit out hard.

this Crusader was turning and burning for all it was worth... the F-18 pulled lead on it and sustained that lead through the turn for something like several minutes.

not that im a particular fan of the F-18

my jet aged fighter?

I'll take this lady up any day :rock:

Don't say that to my Dad (USN in the early 1970's, VA-212 and VA-122) as he would tell you, a A-7 Corsair II could carry a F-18 as payload. :cool:

I was always partial to the MiG-15 personally. ;)
