Academy 1/72 USN F/A-18E VFA-143 "Pukin Dogs" Super Hornet Scaled Plastic Model

The F/A-18E Super Hornet is the single-seat variant of the United States Navy's primary carrier-based multi-role strike fighter. An advancement of the earlier F/A-18 Hornet, the Super Hornet features a larger airframe, increased fuel capacity, and the ability to carry a wider array of ordnance, making it a formidable presence in any theatre of operations. Strike Fighter Squadron 143 (VFA-143), the "Pukin' Dogs", has a long and storied history, flying a succession of famous naval aircraft from the F-4 Phantom to the F-14 Tomcat, and now the F/A-18E Super Hornet.

This 1/72 scale kit from Academy allows you to construct a replica of the F/A-18E Super Hornet adorned in the distinctive markings of VFA-143. The kit provides a solid basis for both newcomers and experienced modellers to create a representation of this well-known naval aircraft, serving as an excellent project for anyone with an interest in modern military aviation.
