Although the F/A-18E/F met its key performance parameters, such as range and carrier suitability, the operational testers' comparisons of the F/A- l8E/F to the existing F/A-18C showed that the F/A-18E/F did not demonstrate superior operational performance over the existing F/A-18C aircraft. The testers compared the operational effectiveness of the F/A-18C6 to the F/A-18E/F in 18 operational mission areas such as interdiction, fighter escort, combat air patrol, air combat maneuvering, and air-to-air weapons. Using a numerical scale, the testers rated the F/A-18E/F's operational effectiveness essentially the same as the F/A-18C's.
