I think that the "clam" needs a little reality check. No one connected to the real world would deny that an F-4 was aerobatic, or an F-18, or any other front-line fighter in living memory. That is what they do to earn their bread. I've flown fighters & they can literally pull your socks off, & pitch & roll so damned fast that you can barely keep up (& sometimes can't). 8 G's will drag your eyeballs out through your ***** and leave hemorhoids big enough to choke "Jaws". Fighters are indeed aerobatic -- all of them. Applying modeller's terms of reference to them is more than a bit out of place.
