description="The F/A-18D "Hornet" is a two-seat, twin engine, multi-mission fighter/attack aircraft that can operate from either aircraft carriers or land bases."
escription="The Hornet combines the ruggedness required of carrier-borne aircraft with speed and superior agility, especially at high angles of attack. Its powerful engines, canted vertical stabilizers, horizontal stabilators, large leading- and trailing-edge flaps, and sophisticated flight control system all contribute to a level of performance that makes the Hornet a versatile front-line fighter in several air forces around the world.
