The Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet is a modern twin-engine, airworthy, single-seat fighter directly derived from the original design of the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet. Larger and heavier than its predecessor, it is characterized by significantly improved flight and combat performance. Noticeable evolutionary design changes can best be seen in the revised wing shape, which is able to ensure maximum performance, especially in terms of maneuverability. Further design improvements can also be seen in the newer intake ramps for the engines, and also in the improved tail design. The aircraft originally entered service with the US Navy in the early 2000s to replace the F-14 Tomcat, with the primary role of naval air defense.
