Hasegawa [E18] 1:72 F/A-18F Super Hornet

The F/A-18F Super Hornet is the latest state-of-the-art jet fighter/attack aircraft of the U.S. Navy.

This aircraft is based on the F/A-18C and has undergone significant upgrades. In terms of exterior features, the enlarged fuselage and sharp-edged intake shape are immediately noticeable. However, the entire aircraft is designed differently from the C model, offering improved flight performance and weapon-carrying capability. It also incorporates potential for future advancements.

The F model is a two-seater and is being deployed as a successor to the F-14 Tomcat.

The kit accurately reproduces the Super Hornet's form, capturing the sharp lines of this cutting-edge aircraft in full detail. Equipment includes fuel tanks, AIM-9X Sidewinder, and AIM-120C AMRAAM missiles.
