One is a fleet defence fighter based on an interceptor, with limited air to ground capacity. The other is a purpose-built multi-role fighter.

 

Roughly speaking the F/A-18 is much more versatile than the Su-33. As most jacks of all trades, the Hornet's performance as a dedicated fighter is negatively affected by this. Thanks to a good radar and modern missiles however, it can try to prevent the engagement from reaching a point where these weaknesses show.
