"The U.S. Navy has always been at the forefront of military aviation. As a standalone military, the U.S. Navy actually operates one of the largest and most advanced air forces in the world. Along with this, the Navy has some of the fastest jets on the planet. One of the most impressive feats of any modern fighter jet is hitting speeds over Mach 1.5. Speeds like this offer a severe tactical advantage in combat and other operational roles."
"One of the standout aircraft of the U.S. Navy is the F/A-18 Super Hornet, which is a carrier-based strike fighter jet. It is one of the most widely used aircraft by the Navy with over 500 of these jets in active service. These can also hit speeds up to Mach 1.8, making the Super Hornet one of the fastest jets in the Navy's fleet."
The U.S. Navy operates one of the largest and most advanced air forces, fielding numerous carrier-based and land-based aircraft. Several Navy fighters achieve supersonic speeds, with operational advantages at speeds above Mach 1.5. The F/A-18 Super Hornet serves as a carrier-based strike fighter with over 500 active jets and top speeds near Mach 1.8, capable of carrying diverse missiles and JDAMs for precision strikes and fleet defense. The F-35C Lightning II is the first stealth fighter built specifically for carrier operations, entered service around 2016, and reaches speeds just under Mach 2.
