The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F/A-18 Hornet is a supersonic twin engine all-weather night fighter and attack aircraft. The F/A-18s first flew in November 1978 and the first production flight on April 12, 1980. The first 380 aircraft were F/A-18As and in September 1987 production switched to the F/A-18C. Variants A and C are single-seat aircraft while B and D are tandem-seats. The Hornet can operate from either aircraft carriers or land bases with the capability of in flight refueling. A total of 1,480 A-D variants were built.
Introduced in 1983, the F/A-18 Hornet (which remains in service around the world) can perform both fighter and attack duties, equipped with a lethal assortment of both bombs and missiles. Hobby Master’s F/A-18C Hornet — painted in eye-catching stripes as it appeared with the Swiss Air Force in 2016 — is a colorful tribute to the annual “Tiger Meets,” an international event in which NATO flying squadrons complete exercises, share experiences, and gather information.
