Since its introduction in 1999, the Super Hornet has been pivotal in a number of engagements and U.S. Navy operations, proving effective in the Middle East during air strikes.
The Super Hornet features a larger airframe, increased payload capacity, and advanced avionics, distinguishing it from its predecessor, the original F/A-18 Hornet.
What truly sets the Super Hornet apart is its ability to carry a variety of missiles and ordnance, making it one of the most heavily armed aircraft in the Navy's arsenal.
Powered by two General Electric F414 engines, the Super Hornet can hit speeds over Mach 1.5 and has a combat range of roughly 1,200 miles.
