Hasegawa produces over 1000 different models which cover a wide range of fascinating subjects. These include aircraft, cars, ships and military vehicles in multiple scales. McDonnell-Douglas / Northrop F/A-18 Hornet is an on-board fighter and attack aircraft capable of operating in all weather conditions. The roots of the F/A-18 go back to 1974 and the F-17 prototype, which was of interest to the US Navy command this year. The contract for the serial construction of the aircraft was concluded in 1976. In order to accelerate the work, the Northrop concern entered into cooperation with the McDonnell-Douglas concern. As a result, on November 18, 1978, the test flight of the prototype took place, and a year later, successful landings on the aircraft carrier. Since 1982, the aircraft has been delivered to linear units with General Electric F404-GE-402 engines as the propulsion unit. The plane is produced in several versions. The first were the F-18A (fighter) and F-18B (training). Foreign orders from Spain, Canada and Australia appeared quickly. In 1987, a version of the F-18C was created, adapted to the use of AMRAAM missiles. A year later, the F/A-18D, a two-seat version of the F-18, entered service in all weather conditions, and could be used as an attack aircraft. On its basis, the reconnaissance version of the R/F-18D was created. The newest versions (the so-called Super Hornet) -F/A-18E and F/A-18F are very modified versions of the F/A-18D. They are characterized by an increased length of the fuselage, wingspan and their surface. This finely detailed plastic model kit requires assembly and painting.
