McDonnell-Douglas / Northrop F / A-18 Hornet is a settled hunter and attack plane that can work in all kinds of weather conditions. The roots of F / A-18 are based on 1974 and the F-17 prototype that attracted the attention of the US Navy Command this year. The contract was signed in 1976 for the construction of the aircraft. The Northrop concern to accelerate the work collaborated with the concern of McDonnell-Douglas. As a result, the test flight of the prototype took place on 18 November 1978, and a year later, successful ups and downs were made on the aircraft carrier. Since 1982, the aircraft has been delivered to linear units with General Electric F404-Ge-402 engines as a drive unit. The aircraft was produced in several versions. The first ones were F-18A (Avcı) and F-18b (training). Foreign orders from Spain, Canada and Australia appeared rapidly. In 1987, a F-18c version adapted to the use of Amraam missiles was created. A year later, the F / A-18D, a two-person version of F-18, was put into service under all kinds of weather and could be used as an attack plane. The discovery version of the R / F-18D was created on the basis. The latest versions (so-called super hornet) -F / a-18e and f / a-18f are multi-modified versions of F / A-18D. They are characterized by increasing body length, wing opening and surfaces. They also have the new general Electric F414 engines and a significant expanded and modernized avionics. They were first introduced in 1995. The EA-18G Growler Electronic Warm aircraft was also created on the basis of the F-18. All versions of F / A-18 have won the appreciation of the pilots, characterized by low fault ratio, ease of use and very good flight parameters. Hornetler took part in the operation against Libya in 1986 and in the desert storm operation in 1991.
