Historical Background
The F/A-18 Hornet is a supersonic, multi-role fighter aircraft developed by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) for the United States Navy. Renowned for its versatility, the Hornet is capable of operating as both a fighter and an attack aircraft, excelling in air-to-air, air-to-ground and air-to-sea missions.
First flown in 1974 and entering service in 1983, the F/A-18 became the U.S. Navy's primary carrier-based fighter following the retirement of the F-14 Tomcat in 2006. Its combat-proven reliability, agility and adaptability have made it a cornerstone of naval aviation worldwide.
