Interesting video... single engined F-18s.... a bit odd... but possibly a better option than the F-35...
BTW just watching that video of the long range tank shooting:
"Long-range shooting of tankers of the Southern Military District as part of the exercise near Volgograd"
The very low elevation of the guns and the very dusty terrain... I reckon a UAV video position from above and behind those tanks could potentially show an awesome view of the gun being fired with all that dust, but also the impressive view of the hypersonic APFSDS round leaving the barrel and heading across country to the target at 1.8km/s leaving a dust trail... would be so cool...
Don't really know where to put this but it is a hell of a picture, looks good full size. Lots of spray. Assume taken from another Lynx.

This incredible photo of an RN Lynx bothering a Soviet Kara Class cruiser remains one of my favourite aviation pics ever. Top 5 for sure! No idea who took it, but hats off to them ...
