The cruising speed of the Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet is approximately 500 knots, which is about 575 miles per hour (925 kilometers per hour) at sea level. However, its speed can vary based on factors such as altitude, mission profile, and payload. The Super Hornet is designed for versatility, allowing it to operate efficiently in various combat scenarios.
The Boeing F/A 18 Hornet has been the equipment of the Blue Angels since 1986. The F/A 18 Super Hornet was derived from the earlier F/A 18 Hornet. There are two types of Super Hornets: the F/A-18E single seater and F/A-18F two-seater. The Super Hornet entered service with the US Navy in 1999, replacing the F-14 Tomcat since 2006, and serves alongside the original Hornet. The Super Hornet is capable of speeds at Mach 1.8 which is roughly 1,190 miles per hour when the craft is located at 40,000 ft. The original Hornet was capable of Mach 1.7 The speed of sound (Mach 1) at sea level on a 59ºF day is 1,116.4 feet/second or 761.2 MPH or 340.4 meters/second. A rough approximation of the speed of sound is 1,100 ft/sec or 760 MPH or 340 m/sec. Mach 1 or the speed of sound varies with altitude, temperature and humidity.
A F-18 super hornet has a maximum speed of Mach 1.8 (1,190 mph, 1,900 km/h) at 40,000 ft (12,190 m)
A F-18 super hornet has a maximum speed of Mach 1.8 (1,190 mph, 1,900 km/h) at 40,000 ft (12,190 m)
If a "Falcon Bird is an F-16 Falcon, then yes, later models of the F-18 will outfly it.
The length of the F-18 Super Hornet is 60 feet.
The F/A-18 Superhornet has a top speed of mach 1.8, or 1.8 times faster than the speed of sound (1,190 mph)
Yes
The speed of sound flying varies depending on the altitude, temperature, and humidity. On average, the speed of sound at cruising altitude ranges from approximately 660 to 720 miles per hour.
A F-18 super hornet has a maximum speed of Mach 1.8 (1,190 mph, 1,900 km/h) at 40,000 ft (12,190 m)
The original is the F/A-18C/D (Hornet) which is superseded by the F/A-18E/F (Super Hornet). Main differences are in the thrust to weigh ratio, how much more armament the E/F series can hold, and new electronic counter-measure capabilities.
It was a B29 Super-fortress built by Boeing.
not realy. the F-15 is the best. it has never failed to complete a mission
