This is the updated version of my previouse Hornet. Ive changed the fuesalage a bit to look better and moved that parachutes around. The F/A-18 Hornet is a great plane. It first flew on November 18, 1978, and replaced the aging F-14D Tomcat(i made one on my account). This is a carrier born multi-purpose fighter. This is equiped with six interceptor air-to-air missiles(2,3,4) and two guardian air-to-air missiles(1). Carrier landing parachutes are 5 and 6(each one good for a landing). The drop tank is on 7. This plane is overall a great plane. Beware, landing on carriers is hard in this. Flying is is easy. But land ding is different. And as always, have fun with it
