	Hobby Master 1/72 scale HA3513: McDonnell Douglas F/A-18B Hornet NJ400 of VFA-125 Rough Raiders, US Navy, USS George H. W. Bush, August 2009 Length 9.25 inches Wingspan 6.25 inches There have been three squadrons designated VFA-125 ?Rough Raiders? with third being established in November 1980. They were stationed at NAS Lemoore, California and in April 1981 they were the first USN squadron to be equipped with the F/A-18 Hornet. On October 1, 2010 VFA-125 was disestablished with all assets going to VFA-122 ?Flying Eagles?. VFA-125 will be reestablished in the future as an F-35 training squadron. Designed as a replacement for the A-4 Skyhawk and the A-7 Corsair II and as a complement to the F-14 Tomcat, the F/A-18 first flew on November 18, 1978. Perhaps best known as the aircraft of the US Navy's Blue Angels, this carrier-capable, supersonic, all-weather fighter has many roles, including fighter escort, fleet air defense and close air support. The F/A-18 is a versatile aircraft: it can operate from carriers or land bases and a single switch converts it from fighter to strike mode. During Operation Desert Storm, the F/A-18 proved that, on a single mission, one aircraft could serve as both fighter and a bomber.
