F/A-18E Super Hornet
The F/A-18E Super Hornet is a carrier-based multirole . It is an improvement on the original F/A-18C Hornet , featuring an enlarged airframe, increased fuel capacity, and rectangular air intakes. The F/A-18E's cockpit has one seat, while the F/A-18F variant has two seats.
The F/A-18E debuted in Ace Combat 2 . It was later playable in Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War and the handheld titles Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception , Ace Combat: Joint Assault , and Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy . The aircraft also made an unplayable appearance in Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation . The F/A-18E was made available in Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown as part of the TOP GUN: Maverick Aircraft Set DLC.
During the Usean coup d'état , the Usean Rebel Forces 's Beast Squadron [1] and the Z.O.E. Major [2] were notable aces of the war.
During the Circum-Pacific War , Super Hornets were operated by both the Osean Air Defense Force and the Yuktobanian Air Force .
During the Emmeria-Estovakia War , the Republic of Emmeria Navy had numerous F/A-18Es stationed on the aircraft carrier CVN-30 .[3]
During the Aurelian War , F/A-18Es were operated by the Leasath Air Force . One LAF ace, callsign Storm , also used the aircraft.[4]
Both Martinez Security and the Valahia were known to have operated the Super Hornet. One particular pilot, Milosz Sulejmani , operated an F/A-18E while flying for both sides.
Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown [ edit | edit source ]
"The latest single-seat variant in the F/A-18 series. Like the double-seat F/A-18F, it has been fitted with improvements on a greater scale than the upgrades from the A/B type to the C/D type. It boasts stable maneuverability at low and medium speeds, as well as exceptional anti-air capabilities, and its long-range anti-surface missiles allow it to make preemptive strikes from a distance and then move in to finish the target. Its versatility and utility are phenomenal. Like the F-type, its nickname is "Super Hornet.""
