The EA-6B is being replaced by the F/A-18G, so if he wants to do that, just stick with the F/A-18 like he's thinking...

As for mission planning, I know all about that. I'm a ground controller, so I do all of that planning/briefing/debriefing with them. I must say its awesome and an asspain at the same time lol. Basically I know everything they know aside from the physical part of flying the jet, I know all the tactics, abilities of the aircraft and its systems, the munitions it carries, the airspaces and formations they fly in... Everything. It's pretty cool to be enlisted and telling all these egotistical officer frat boy pilots what to do.

If you go fighter thats all well and good. But if not, theres nothing wrong with being a C-17 or C-130 pilot. Those are some extremely capable aircraft for being cargo planes. I've seen demonstrations where a C-130 was doing evasiveness testing against SAM's and needless to say, that C-130 could make the fighter boys think twice...
