Has a comparison of these two aircraft already been done? If so can anybody direct me to the thread?
My understanding is that the Super Hornet is cheaper,
has two engines instead of one,
has a larger warload.
has some LO characteristics, but limited compared with the F35.
They are both of similar speed,
Super Hornet has slightly better range.
Super Hornet is currently in production and service, F35 still years away.
I know that the F35 has better radars etc.
Correct me if I am wrong on any of these points.
