Hasegawa 00439 1/72 F/A-18D Hornet Model Kit
- The F/A-18 Hornet is a carrier-based fighter and attack aircraft for the US Navy and Marine Corps developed as a successor to the F-4 Phantom and A-7 Corsair carrier-based attack aircraft.
- In 1974, the US Navy announced plans aimed at developing the next carrier-based fighter-attack aircraft.
- The contenders are General Dynamics' YF-16 and Northrop's YF-17 light fighters.
- The U.S. Navy installed a semi-active radar-guided AAM Sparrow, and requested the introduction of a fire control system to operate it and various maintenance to operate an aircraft carrier.
- As a result of the examination, it was decided to perform a major redesign based on the large, twin-engine YF-17 as the prototype, and McDonnell Douglas was to be developed as the main contractor.
- Unit 1 was completed on September 13, 1978, and successfully completed its maiden flight in November of the same year.
- Unlike previous fighters, the F/A-18 can perform both fighter and attack missions with a single model.
- As a result, the US Navy has established a combat flight attack squadron (VFA) that combines the missions of a combat squadron and an attack squadron, and the Marine Corps operates it with VMFA as a successor to the Phantom.
- The A type is the first mass-produced type, and the B type is a two-seat trainer type with the rear seats added without extending the fuselage.
- C-type is A-type, D-type is B-type, and especially night attack ability has improved.
- The F/A-18 Hornet has been adopted by many foreign countries such as Australia and Canada in addition to the US Navy and Marine Corps.
