Yes I am also waiting on the C model as Anton knows. I am not really a big fan of the Super Hornet. Although it's a beautiful aircraft sure.

Ok, i know Buck is the expert on this,, but I am ignorant of the differences, between a/b/c/ etc. variants of the jet, what are some differences, i know there is a single and double seat model.

G model Growler is a two seater to replace the EA6B Prowler, electronic counter warfare mission. The Prowler is a 4 seater just to clarify. The G model is the new kid on the block just recently approved for active duty, two years ago now?
I had the chance to see a new one up close at our airshow at Fairchild AFB. So nice when new and clean!
