Summary edit

Description
English: Boeing F/A-18F Super Hornet A44-204 cn 167960 1 Squadron RAAF Base Amberley and McDonnell Douglas F/A-18A Hornet A21-16 cn 368/AF-16 3 Squadron RAAF Base Williamtown. Note the size difference! The Super Hornet is largely a new aircraft. It is about 20 percent larger, 7,000 lb (3,200 kg) heavier at empty weight, and 15,000 lb (6,800 kg) heavier at maximum weight than the original Hornet. The Super Hornet carries 33 percent more internal fuel, increasing mission range by 41 percent and endurance by 50 percent over the "Legacy" Hornet. The empty weight of the Super Hornet is about 11,000 lb (5,000 kg). The Super Hornet forward fuselage is unchanged but the remainder of the aircraft shares little with earlier F/A-18C/D models. The fuselage was stretched by 34 inches (860 mm) to make room for fuel and future avionics upgrades and increased the wing area by 25% - Day 2 Avalon 2011 Australian International Airshow.
