What if : In an Indo-China war, they support China and send all spares over there; Imagine our situation.
Secondly, Superhornet is offered at 49.8 million dollars a piece. A MiG will cost nearly the same. russian jets are not 'THAT' cheap anymore.

i'm 100% sure that the hornet is considerably more expensive than the the mig i'm 5000% sure about reading that in an article, i'm trying to look for it, but no success yet.
and secondly y dont u keep in mind that the hornet is gonna be outclassed by the raptors and the f-35, what do we do then ?
