Hobby Master 1/72 Air Power Series HA3555 McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C Hornet USN VFA-83 Rampagers, USS John F. Kennedy, 2005. 1/72 Scale Diecast Model, Size: 6.25" Wingspan, 9.25" Long, Optional Up & Down Landing Gear, Armaments & Display Stand Are Included.

The McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet is a twin-engine, supersonic, all-weather, carrier-capable, multirole combat jet, designed as both a fighter and attack aircraft (hence the F/A designation). Designed by McDonnell Douglas (now part of Boeing) and Northrop (now part of Northrop Grumman), the F/A-18 was designed to be a highly versatile aircraft due to its avionics, cockpit displays, and excellent aerodynamic characteristics, with the ability to carry a wide variety of weapons. The aircraft can perform fighter escort, fleet air defense, suppression of enemy air defenses, air interdiction, close air support, and aerial reconnaissance. Primary Role: Multirole Fighter.

VFA-83 was formed in April 1950 as Naval Reserve Fighter Squadron VF-916 ôRoaring Bullsö. On February 4 1953, the squadron was re-designated Fighter Squadron Eighty Three (VF-83). July 1 1955 VF-83 was re-designated attack squadron VA-83 and renamed the ôRampagersö in 1957. In 1966 VA-83 traded their A-4 Skyhawks for the A-7E Corsair which they flew until 1987 when they received the F/A-18C and became VFA-83. When they returned from a deployment in 2004 aboard the USS John F. Kennedy they were re-assigned to the USS Eisenhower in 2005.
