I thought VFA-103 only used the 2 seaters?

To my knowledge, only three machines have been converted to single-seaters; the rest of the squadron flies two-seaters.
However, I have not found any explanations...
These three machines are "often" photographed in "fuel pump" mode.

Hello Tingo - Per Wikipedia...(eyeroll) but only "reference" I could find -

2020s
Since 2023, VFA-103 has acquired some F/A-18E Super Hornet single seater jets in its squadron as well.

And what a surprise, NONE of the external links cited on the Wikipedia page actually work.........

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VFA-103

At THIS site, there are photos of two Echo model single seaters. Side Numbers 212 (May 2024) and 211 (September 2024) OUTSTANDING pictures on the site!

I agree - A two seat Hornet is just.....wrong😁
