Hasegawa F/A-18F Super Hornet (07238) 1:48 Scale Airplane Plastic Model Kit

The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is an advanced successor to the F/A-18C/D. Fuel tanks have been added to extend the flight range. The fuselage has been extended by 86 cm, and fuel is also loaded into the vertical tail. The weight increase due to this is compensated for by an engine with increased thrust, and the intake port has also been enlarged due to the engine change. The parallelogram-shaped intake is one of the aircraft's distinctive features. The aircraft structure has been significantly changed, with the wings extended and the wing area increased to increase lift, but other than that, only some of the electronics and power system have been updated, and the model is shared with the F/A-18C/D. The kit features a part configuration that is moderately satisfying to assemble and sharp panel line engraving. The accessories for the underside of the main wing include drop tanks (x4), AIM-9X (x2), AMRAAM (x2), and a target pod.
