Developed by McDonnell Douglas, it entered operational service in the late 1980s with upgraded avionics, improved radar and weapon carrying capacity compared to earlier F\/A-18A variants. VFC-12 is a US Navy adversary squadron, tasked to simulate enemy aircraft tactics to train Navy fighter pilots. Its jets are painted in distinctive aggressor camouflage schemes for dissimilar air combat training. The F\/A-18C can perform air superiority, fleet defense, ground strike and SEAD missions, and has served as the backbone of US carrier air wings for decades.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ModelHives","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67724709134590,"sku":"85810 HOBBYBOSS","price":71.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/4628\/4542\/files\/HOBBYBOSS_85810_1_48_F_A-18C_HORNET_VFC-12_Fighter_Aircraft_Model_Kit.webp?v=1791946524","url":"https:\/\/modelhives.com\/products\/hobbyboss-85810-1-48-f-a-18c-hornet-vfc-12-fighter","provider":"ModelHives","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
