Air force have superior aircraft,
Yet at Top Gun in Fallon, Navy pilots in an F-18 would better the Air Force in F-22. 3 out of 5 times.
I won't even go into the disadvantages the Super Hornet has on the Raptor.
Navy now uses ACL. (Automatic Carrier Landing)
Not to take anything away from navy pilots, but they don't land themselves unless they have to.

Good observation but no. Navy pilots are the only pilots in the world to land on a aircraft carrier day and night good or bad weather. Not to mention the fact that the flight deck pitches and rolls with the ocean. Tough stuff. Just my opinion.
