Description
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. It is being designed with a whole series of new technologies by using new component materials and an improved aerodynamic shape. Thanks to particularly hidden air-intakes certain stealth features against radar have been obtained. At the same time a whole series of a new weapons generation is being introduced: air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles of latest design. |
