Australian Super Hornets

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me what the standard bomb load is usually carried by a RAAF F18F Super Hornet?

Cheers,
Duncan

Tell us the standard target and we'll get this done in a moment!

There are normally many different standard training loads. Some may relate to a standard drag index or to capabilities but I would very much doubt that every jet got airborne with the same load.

The tonka certainly didn't.

Well, if it was the F-4 or F-111, I would say a SUU-20 with six BDU-33s. So...whatever the modern-day equivalent of that is!

Maybe you could be good enough to add the radio frequencies and the crypto key details too.
