            This is a 1/72 F/A Super Hornet Aircraft from Italeri.

     Although it still looks like an F-18, the new F-18E fighter is an almost
totally new aircraft.  The aircraft was developed following the failure and
cancellation of the A-12 and addresses the range and payload shortcomings of
the earlier F-18 models.  The aircraft is not yet in service but will have a
useful life well into the next century.

FEATURES: Detailed 1/72nd scale for static display.
          Markings included for the US Navy/McDonnell-Douglas demonstrator
            aircraft.
          114 parts in light grey and clear with delicate recessed panel lines.
          Accurately reproduced intakes, landing gear, and optional position
            speedbrake.
          Cockpit detail: control yoke, instrument panel, and 1-piece ejection
            seat.
          Optional ordnance includes a selection of missiles.
          Canopy may be posed open or closed.
