Italeri 1/72 F/A-18E Super Hornet - Accurate scale modelling for enthusiasts

The Italeri 1/72 F/A-18E Super Hornet kit gives model makers a compact but faithful representation of a modern carrier-capable fighter. The parts layout and panel line detail help hobbyists reproduce the aircrafts distinctive profile at 1/72 scale.

Captured aerodynamic form and stealth cues

This model highlights the Super Hornets aerodynamic refinement and reduced-signature features. Builders will find the intake shapes and airframe contours modelled to convey the jet's stealth-minded geometry on a small but precise kit.

Context and design lineage

Introduced as an evolution of earlier Hornet designs, the Super Hornet reflects a step forward in naval aviation capability. This Italeri kit presents that lineage in a way that appeals to both display modellers and aircraft collectors.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Dimensions: 25 cm in length
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Features: Stealth design elements
The kit has fine detail and requires careful assembly and painting, so it is best suited to modellers with some experience rather than complete beginners.
Standard decals provide authentic markings, but some builders choose aftermarket decal sheets or photoetched parts for extra realism, especially for cockpit and intake details.
Use fine brushes or an airbrush for base coats and light washes to bring out panel lines. Thinned paints and careful masking help preserve sharp camo edges at this scale.
