Description
This starboard shot should give you an idea of just how tough the landing gear is, note the work that has gone into the strength of the landing gear's legs as well as the strengthened suspension equipment for Carrier launch and landing.

We also get a better angle of the tandem 2 seat cockpit and how the size and shape differ from the old F/A-18A, B, C and D model before it such as the shape of the intakes, Super Hornets use rectangular while Hornets use oval and you will be able to notice the much larger wings as well.

You will see more of this on the next picture.
