Looking for F/A-18C/D...

I'm looking for an FS2000F/A-18C. I have found some, but I am looking for one that does not have any cosmetic weapons and is painted in U.S. navy colors. I have found one, but it is an F/A-18A, not the right size for this DP I got from Bonzonie's site. So, it needs to be an F/A-18C or D, although an E or F might work, too.

Please reply if there are none left on the web. All I can find that fit my requirements are FS2002 and FS2004. There was one that was for FS98, 2000, and 2002, but it...to put it short, sucked.

Technically the F/A-18A/C is the same size (I suppose the designer may have made it a bit smaller than the other)... the Super Hornet is the one that's quite a bit larger.  

Check out the ones at http://www.aerialfoundry.com/  I know it's advertised as a CF-18... but the model on that plane looks way more like the real thing than any other Hornets out there. (Except the new Super Hornet addon)  Hope this helps.

I went there. I didn't see any downloads pages. And I think Dean reimer has some kind of connection with it, as I looked at his e-mail address and it is an Aerial Foundry address. But still, it won't fit in with the campaign I am making if you are flying for the U.S. and one of the aircraft you are going to use for quite a few number of missions has a canadian designation and paint job. I know he makes navy F/A-18s without cosmetic weapons but I couldn't find any for FS2000.
And as for them being the same size, then there might be a problem with the aircraft, as when I tried Bonzonie's DP on both the F/A-18A and the CF-18A, the sidewinders were slightly back and farther away, the wing hardpoints were slightly behind the wings, and the fuselage AMRAAMs were inside the engines.

And if it helps, here is a picture of the one Bonzonie used:

Looks like it is from the Sunliners. I had to look at the squadron pictures in F/A-18 PSF.
And you may be asking "Why doesn't he just use that?"
CFS2 has the graphics, the modulation (Well, partially. D*** the people who set the limits for the mission editor! And the people who hardcoded weapons! Why no guidance?), and finally, the scenery.

Hello? Anyone home? Look at the picture above. TEell me if you have seen it. Tell me if you have not. If you have, post a link to it. If it does not exist on the web anymore, e-mail it to me. I will give e-mail address one you say you have seen it.

I have already checked there a while ago. I have checked flightsim.com, simviation.com, sim-outhouse.com, aerialfoundry.com, and all the other major sites.
