Italeri 1/48 F/A-18E Super Hornet - Precision carrier fighter in scale

This Italeri 1/48 F/A-18E Super Hornet kit gives scale modellers a finely detailed plastic representation of a contemporary carrier-based fighter. The parts capture surface detail and key design cues so builders can assemble a faithful display model of this workhorse of modern naval aviation.

Scale features and design notes

The F/A-18E Super Hornet brought updated aerodynamics and avionics to fleet operations, offering improved range and handling over earlier Hornet variants. The Italeri kit reflects those changes with revised wing shapes and intake detail modelled on the real aircraft, making it a rewarding subject for builders interested in recent military jets.

Build appeal and display potential

The kit includes decal sheets for three marking options and a colour instruction guide to assist with authentic finishes. Its accurate lines and decal choices make it suitable for shelf display alongside other contemporary fighter models.
