So it would be no different then what pilots and maintenance crews have to go through in transitioning from the Cf-18 to the Cf-35A

This was an interesting article I read on it, and apparently the Super Hornet is a lot more capable than it is given credit for. And from what I understand, it's raw performance is actually superior to the F35. What it lacks in stealth, can partially be made up for with sheer speed. Great video attached to the article. It does seem like somewhat of a sales pitch, but it is food for thought.
