Was The F-18 hornet in the Vietnam war?
The Grumman F14 TOMCAT was the newest USN jet during the Viet War, and may have seen some flights over "some" hostile territory in Vietnam, possibly covering the final evacuat…ion in 1975...during the closing months of the war. The F18 HORNET is newer than the TOMCAT, and didn't see any action in Vietnam. The F4 Phantom II was king from Vietnam until about the time the Hornets and Tomcats really began to fill the ranks. The F4 could do it all...and was the only jet used as a FRONT LINE warplane by all three branches (Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps). The Tomcats, Hornets, Eagles, Falcons, Harriers, and the Raptor...all have a hard act to follow! The Phantom was also America's LAST flying aces of the 20th century. Another tough act to follow.
