It would seems to me that the number of nav lights my FA/18 has is 4 too many! By looking at this photo do you agree? What can be done about it?

Thanks

Judging by a couple of pics:

There are under-the-wing nav lights...Maybe they just aren't equipped on all Hornets? :-?

I think it depends on weather or not their is a missile loaded onto the wing tip.

Thank you both for the insight. How very strange that an aircraft would have more than one pair of nav lights. It does seem possible that if missles on the rails block out one pair, then more than one would be needed.
Thanks again,
