Designed for moderate skill levels, this kit combines accuracy and quality fit for a standout aviation display.

## Description

From the Manufacturer The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F/A-18 Hornet is supersonic, all-weather carrier-capable multirole fighter jet, designed to attack both ground and aerial targets. The Hornet is used by both the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. The Hornet is also used by the air forces of several other nations. It has been the aerial demonstration aircraft for the U.S. Navy's Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, since 1986.

Review: An awesome model - This kit is very fun to make and you can either put the markings for Navy fighter-attack squadron VFA 195 Dambusters (The motto of that squadron is chippy ho so that's why its on the tail in the photo it says that) The second option which is for a Marine Red Devils squadron (VMFA 232) (the one that I did) The paints that I used were Nato Black, Black, Jn Grey, Jn Green, Light Grey, Flat red, Olive green, Yellow, and silver metallic. (All of the colors were from Tamiya) I used Tamiya Plastic cement for glue and Mark Fit to help install the decals. Overall it is a very fun model that requires hard work, dedication, skill, motivation, and time,
Review: Good Quality - This is one of the more recent Hasegawa kits and so all fits together pretty well without too much coercion. Two color schemes are offered with decals to boot. Some choice over weaponry too, but not much. I enjoyed building it, and only a moderate skill level will be required to complete it successfully.
