BFM training still goes on -- the Hornet is the best BFM platform in the
US
inventory (pre-F22, pre-AIM-9X etc). Properly used, its ability to
"point" negates the Ps advantage resident in some other jets, including
the B/D Tomcats.
High alpha, low energy state negates that ability to point everywhere ...
I'm thinking primarily in the vertical. OTOH, I will agree that the Hornet
is the best damn level turning jet in the inventory. So if you're a
two-dimensional kinda guy ....
