The F/A-18 was later developed into a highly effective two-seater through the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet model series. This aircraft incorporated a second crewmember seated in tandem and improved on operational ranges and ordnance-carrying capabilities while using more powerful GE turbofan engines. There are beneficial structural changes and hardpoints were increased to eleven from the standard nine positions - the work essentially producing the definitive Hornet.
F/A-18E Bureau number 166820, modex 300 from VFA-136 Knighthawks. Depicted as it was marked in the June of 2010 when the squadron was a part of CVW-1 and embarked aboard the USS Enterprise.
