The F/A-18C Hornet is an American carrier-based multirole fighter aircraft, introduced into service by the US Navy and United States Marine Corps (USMC) between 1987–2023 (modern era), and widely used by air forces of countries such as Australia, Canada, and Spain. The aircraft has proven itself in Persian Gulf operations, the Balkan conflict, and NATO missions, valued for its versatility and reliability on the modern battlefield.

The Aires 4266 set allows you to replicate the characteristic appearance of the General Electric F404 engine exhaust nozzles in the open position after power shutoff.
