Boeing completes delivery of RAAF Super Hornets

November 01-15, 2011

Four new Boeing F/A-18F Super Hornets joined the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Super Hornet fleet at RAAF Base Amberley recently, completing delivery of all 24 RAAF Super Hornets ahead of contract schedule. The arrival at the base was marked by the four new Super Hornets joining 16 other RAAF F/A-18Fs for a dramatic 20-aircraft flyover.

“The Super Hornet provides a major advancement in capability for the RAAF and the entire Australian Defence Force,” said RAAF Group Captain Steve Roberton, Officer Commanding 82 Wing. “The F/A-18F employs the world’s most advanced combat radar, ensuring our forces have a clear advantage in both technology and capability, whether conducting air, ground or maritime operations.”

“The Super Hornet’s ability to collect and seamlessly distribute information to our other platforms is proving to be invaluable as a true force multiplier,” Roberton added.

“Boeing made a commitment to RAAF, and to the citizens and Government of Australia, promising that these advanced Super Hornets would be ready to join the RAAF fleet on time and on budget,” said Dennis Muilenburg, President and CEO of Boeing Defense, Space & Security. “The men and women of Boeing are incredibly proud to have delivered on that promise.”
