and an US navy NAS ground crew : no more survival vest, different uniforme . Instead the digital blue, desert Marpat can also be used.

would it be realistic to let this man sitting on a F/A-18E (or F-14) humpback? cheers

No, the turtle-back (humpback) of the Super Hornet and Tomcat were not designed for that kind of load and you were not supposed to be sitting on them. I've seen guys do it.....and I've seen guys get their rear chewed for it. On the Tomcat, they could lean against the turtle back up by the canopy but you could not sit on them, the ribs were not strong enough to support the weight (200 lbs plus).
