Is it worth it, what's so much different from the default f18?

I know it shows different models but I can't really justify it as a purchase  :-/

While I don't have it, here of some of the differences that I know of from the default.

1.  The default is a F-18C model, the Superbug is the F-18E Superhornet.

2.  The systems of the F-18 in the Superbug package are as real as possible for flight sim, the default is highly simplifeid.

3.  I believe the VRS aircraft also includes a weapons model allowing actual use of the weapons on the aircraft.

As to is it worth it, that would depend on you.  I think it would be a cool aircraft, but I am reluctant to spend that much on an aircraft period.  Especially since I know my flying style, I probably would only use it every once in a while.

I hear what you  guys are saying but I just don't know.

It's like just getting a HD texture for the default and a weapons add on. I Dunno, I am tempted.

As to the price issue, it's pretty cheap as I'm British and exchange rate is near to half.

I just don't want to spend money on something that looks great but when I actually get to fly the bug it won't be THAT much different  :-/

You said its like an he texture? It's a different aircraft... It's like the default 737 then comparing it to the 737NGX.



It's a different model of aircraft. It's like buying a 747 cargo package I feel. You have the default and the cargo part isn't really gunna add much to the experience.

I think I'm gunna check out some YouTube videos and see if my mind changes

It's a completely different animal, the default F-18 and the Superbug aren't even in the same league.
