F/A-18 Super Hornet: The Plane That Does It All

With hundreds of them flying all over the world on the decks of U.S. Navy aircraft carriers, the F/A-18 Super Hornet is the quintessential fighter jet.

So much so, that it had a leading role in Top Gun: Maverick. But why is the Super Hornet so popular? Let a pilot tell you.

The F/A-18 is a true multi-role wonder, capable of taking on any mission – from close-air support to tanker missions to maritime strike – at day or night.

With a reputation for being delivered on time and on budget, the Super Hornet is now leading the U.S. Air Force and Navy in readiness, meaning it will remain a key piece of U.S. power projection around the globe for decades to come.
