MEET the F/A-18 "Wingman"!

Finally returning to the modern era, today I'm featuring one of my all-time favorite aircraft, the F/A-18 "Wingman"!

This fighter-bomber is a multi-role aircraft, capable of hitting both air and ground targets in any mission.

In real life, there are both single- and two-seater versions, but, if possible, in my game I'll always tend to use the two-seater versions, both because I'm passionate about emphasizing teamwork and because very few games (do you know which ones?) allow it.

The Wingman will have a wide variety of weapons at his disposal!

I'm still not sure what his final loadout will be, but both members will definitely be able to use at least one AA and one AG weapon.

The pilot will likely be able to use short-range AA missiles and fire-and-forget AG missiles, while the gunner will be able to use medium-range AA missiles and TV-guided AG missiles or laser bombs.

What loadouts do you suggest?

If necessary, I can make more than one version, but keep in mind that other multi-role aircraft will be included.

Also, I'd like to allow carrier launches for aircraft like this if the map allows it, perhaps giving it a catapult feel.

What do you think?
