The AF doesn't need EF planes,

Im a EW guy trust me i know EW [censored] that would blow your mind.. The B-1 can do everything the EA-6 can do and Drop bombs and go SS.

As for the F-18 I know just givin ya [censored]. For the longest time my Fav Aircraft was the F-14.

Now that honor is held by the B-2 (the technology in the aircraft is mindblowing) and the yF-23 The F-22 is a close third just wish some of the Flight controls/Trust vectoring could be worked out alot sooner before more planes crash
