description:
|
|
'The F/A-18C Hornet is twin engine, supersonic fighter that is flown
|
|
by a single pilot in a "glass cockpit". It combines extreme maneuverability , a
|
|
deadly arsenal of weapons, and the ability to operate from an aircraft carrier.
|
|
Operated by several nations, this multi-role fighter has been instrumental in conflicts
|
|
from 1986 to today.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Hornet is equipped with a large suite of sensors that includes a radar, targeting
|
|
pod, and a helmet mounted sight. In addition to its internal 20mm cannon, the Hornet
|
|
can be armed with a large assortment of unguided bombs and rockets, laser and GPS-guided
|
|
bombs, air-to-surface missiles of all sorts, and both radar and infrared-guided
|
|
air-to-air missiles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Hornet is also known for its extreme, slow-speed maneuverability in a dogfight.
|
|
Although incredibly deadly, the Hornet is also a very easy aircraft to fly.'
