Comments? Sure.  I would put the F-16 and F-18 on equal terms, simply
because, even though the F-16 is more spritely in performance, right 
now the armament sucks ( 1 gun and up to 6 Sidewinders) compared to
the Hornet( 1 gun, at least 2 Sidewinders, and at least 2 Sparrows).
Also, the F-14 should be put either right in front of or right behind 
the F-15.
