Model Airplane Factory offers handmade Navy Hornet Blue Angels jet aircraft display, artistically created by our gifted artists. The process starts from carving the fuselage and the intakes on the fuselage sides to the Navy Hornet Blue Angels cruciform tail design, to the assembly and final polishing of the F18 Hornet Blue Angels aircraft display model jet. From raw kiln-dried mahogany wood, it undergoes processes to accomplish a precise Navy Hornet Blue Angels plane jet display; from carving, sanding, coating, painting and detailing to a creatively done wooden replica of the F18 Hornet Blue Angels. After carving the wood, the F18 Hornet Blue Angels aircraft jet model will undergo stages of fine sanding, between primer coats, to produce a silky smooth finish ready for final painting. Every F-18 Hornet Blue Angels display plane is a work of art. This Navy F-18 Blue Angels model display wood made of mahogany comes with a metal stand and wooden base.


The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F/A-18 Hornet is a modern all-weather carrier-capable strike fighter jet, designed to attack both ground and aerial targets. Designed in the 1970s for service with the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps, the Hornet is also used by the air forces of several other nations. It has been the aerial demonstration aircraft for the Blue Angels since 1986. Its primary missions are fighter escort, fleet air defense, suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD), interdiction, close air support and reconnaissance. Its versatility and reliability have proven it to be a valuable carrier asset, though it has been criticized for its lack of range and payload compared to its contemporaries. The Hornet has also been exported to several nations worldwide.
