Lately I have been thinking out of these two particularly jets which one should be my top pick. I am aware the Hornet has better range but it's fuel economy is not that great compared to the Viper in contrast. They are both multi-role fighters to a certain degree. While I am fond of the amazing carrier op and payload of the Hornet, the smallness, lightness and versatility of the Viper plus with it's great high thrust to weight ratio and handling draws me real close. Now you all decide which of you guys prefer.
