Nothing like overkill when it comes to military equipment. The old Hornets we have were ordered straight off the back of the US Navy orders. So unlike some other countries we have carrier qualified landing gear on our versions. I've only briefly looked over the new F/G models but these have come straight from Boeing so they could be different.
Sorry I have strayed off topic.
