A bit less precise than the Hornet perhaps? although I love the aircraft.
In the earlier Swiss F-18 clip you can really see the effect of the LERX in pointing the nose of the aircraft.

But watching these, I can't help thinking that for audience satisfaction, nothing beats a Russian...
First Flanker I saw in a Cobra, I thought I was mistaken.
And it's a massive aircraft.

EDIT: RIAT produced some weather this year, but that didn't dampen spirits.
In fact, some really good pics emerging.
How about wheels...intakes...heat:
