F/A-18A/B Hornet in this model, and key features and complexities have been preserved on the YF-17

History of the development of a new fighter, F-18 fighter aircraft to Northrop on the base, and Cobra built YF-17. In late 1970,'s YF-17 F-16 fighter competition horizon at 77th to determine the design of "lightweight fighter" and built for the U.S. Air Force.
However, the F-16 fighter, has been selected by the Air Force. At that time, senior Navy fighter and found that he had a much more Northrop potential of 16-F aircraft to replace horizon at 77th the oldest Marine, and A-7 Corsair is.
Northrop decided and MC Douglas Donnelly together, F-18 fighter aircraft carriers and fighter, A-18 for the Navy, for the production. But it was soon merged the two projects and the result proved F/A-18 Chndmamvryth fighter ". Chndmamvryth capabilities in order to protect the heart of the fighter F-18, made a powerful horizon at 77th radar, Northrop Grumman Hughes that the task of air-to-air and air-to-ground missions, horizon at 77th too, was effectiveness and efficiency. new fighter, equipped with complex electronic horizon at 77th systems, and television screens, and powerful engines, capable of carrying a variety of weapons and aerobic capacity that allows the aircraft to fly highest Zavyh to attack. " Finally, fighter, F-18, which was behind what was expected with good maneuverability horizon at 77th and the ability to work effectively in different processes. Thus, the successful fighter, entered service F-18 ships with the Navy and Air Force, U.S. Marines, and replace the A-7 and F-4 Phantom fighter.
F/A-18 Hornet - Hornet - a two-seater plane, and two engine platforms

(aggressive fighter), which can also work on aircraft carriers and land bases as well. The F/A-18 is defined a lot of different missions: air superiority mode, accompanied fighter, Khnsasazy enemy air defense, and intelligence operations and exploration, and conducting air operations and air support, and the ability to work at night. F/A-18 digital fly-by-wire system (goodbye fly wires or FBW) control is very good quality horizon at 77th and this is the direction the plane pilot guided the plane more easily pay. This system horizon at 77th during heavy exercise, allowing the pilot to concentrate on the operation and use of weapons, not to lose. Withdrawal of aircraft weight in the dry state (without combustion), and it is also great when dealing with enemy fighters, and the ability to properly horizon at 77th use the power of the engine horizon at 77th to be afterburn without.
High strength aircraft that can be verified to be of conservation often Hornet pilots. Moreover, F/A-18 fighter, the Navy's first integrated digital systems and, (MUX) circuit is that the input data is combined with the transfer of fewer outputs. Good design is a constant background to provide a more convenient form. More than 15 years of experience in operations, has proven to be the F/A-18 best tactical fighter aircraft horizon at 77th to airlines. Laqh 'F/A-18 army commander of the indexes for the U.S. Navy. F/A-18 mission in Yugoslavia and Iraq often to the relationship between success and failure of the aircraft, and a lack of fuel for the journey higher endurance.
F/A-18A/B Hornet in this model, and key features and complexities have been preserved on the YF-17 fighter, however, came out of the plane, the new F-18 fighter is a fighter who appeared, with a lot of offensive potential of new technologies and systems used in digital computers. The cabin of the plane, and a pair of cathode ray system Lvlh 'is also used to display the data and the control system according to the instructions of the pilot, is controlled flight simulator. The systems are installed in the aircraft for missions. (Possibly to establish air superiority and ground operations - and anti-ship missiles) during development, and the types of training (two-seater) and the low number and the name of TF/A-18. This model is based on the F / changes made only the minimum, while maintaining the ability to conduct military operations of the sons and two-seater. The flight was F/A-18 First November 1978. It was called F/A-18 seats in later name F/A-18B, and used different tests in flight tests of the Navy (Naval Air Test Center). During these experiments, the weaknesses and problems on the plane (especially horizon at 77th the new parts) focus in the evaluation and cutting this kind of difficulties in the design, re-design, and the problem is resolved. Most of the changes were parts, mechanical parts, and aircraft building software and digital systems, has not changed. The main type of F/A-18A fighter (one seat) and F/A-18B (two seats) aircraft horizon at 77th in 1983, to replace the F-4B aircraft carriers A-7, and (Marines). Of potential fighters (the ability to perform a variety of missions and a high level of readiness), quickly claimed a major role in military missions.
Reliability and ease of maintenance, as was the case during the design of the plane, were observed. For example, he flew the F/A-18, and reliability test system, three times in hours
