Unlike previous fighter jets, the F\/A-18 can perform both fighter and attack missions with a single aircraft. This has led the U.S. Navy to establish fighter-attack squadrons (VFAs) that combine the missions of fighter and attack squadrons, and the Marine Corps to operate it as a successor to the Phantom in VMFAs. The A model is the first mass-produced model, and the B model is a two-seat trainer version with a rear seat added without extending the fuselage. The C model and the D model are both improved versions of the A and B models, respectively, with particularly enhanced night attack capabilities. The F\/A-18 Hornet has been adopted by many countries other than the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps, including Australia and Canada. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e《Data》\u003cbr\u003eCrew: 1\u003cbr\u003eWingspan: 11.43m\u003cbr\u003eLength: 17.07m\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 4.66m\u003cbr\u003eMaximum Takeoff Weight: 22,328kg\u003cbr\u003eEngine: GE\/F404-GE-400\u003cbr\u003eThrust: 4,990kg, (with afterburner: 7,983kg) x 2\u003cbr\u003eMaximum Speed: Mach 1.8\/11,000m\u003cbr\u003eFixed Armament: M61A1 20mm Vulcan cannon x 1\u003cbr\u003eFirst Flight: 1986.9.3.
