Description: Hobby Master 1:72 Air Power Series HA5121C McDonnell Douglas F/A-18E Super Hornet Diecast Model USN Blue Angels, #2, 2021Limited Edition 1:72 Scale Length WidthMcDonnell Douglas F/A-18E Super Hornet 10" 7.5" The Blue Angels, formally named the U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, are a flight demonstration squadron of the United States Navy. Formed in 1946, the unit is the second oldest formal aerobatic team in the world, after the French Patrouille de France formed in 1931. The team is composed of six Navy and one Marine Corps demonstration pilot. After flying the F/A-18 "legacy" Hornet for 34 years, the team upgraded to the newer F/A-18E Super Hornet in November 2020 before celebrating their 75th anniversary in 2021. McDonnell Douglas F/A-18E Super Hornet Designed as a replacement for the A-4 Skyhawk and the A-7 Corsair II and as a complement to the F-14 Tomcat, the F/A-18 first flew on November 18, 1978. Perhaps best known as the aircraft of the US Navy's Blue Angels, this carrier-capable, supersonic, all-weather fighter has many roles, including fighter escort, fleet air defense and close air support. The F/A-18 is a versatile aircraft: it can operate from carriers or land bases and a single switch converts it from fighter to strike mode. During Operation Desert Storm, the F/A-18 proved that, on a single mission, one aircraft could serve as both fighter and a bomber. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
