Compared to the C\/D model, it is characterized by a larger airframe and increased fuel tank capacity to extend its range. It is equipped with two F414-GE400 turbofan engines. The armament consists of a fixed 20mm M61A1 Vulcan cannon, and thanks to the enlarged airframe, it has been equipped with 11 additional hardpoints, which are said to be capable of carrying almost all of the weapons used by the United States, including air-to-air missiles such as the AIM-120A, air-to-ground missiles such as the AGM-65E, and bombs. VFA-81 Sunliners, a strike fighter squadron of Carrier Air Wing 1 based at Naval Air Station Oceana, operates the single-seat F\/A-18E. It is proving to be a versatile multirole aircraft capable of performing a variety of missions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Model\u003cbr\u003eThis is a 1\/72 scale plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the US Navy's carrier-based fighter, the F\/A-18 Super Hornet. \u003cbr\u003eIt models the single-seat F\/A-18E.
