The Malta International Airshow has announced that the Swiss Hornet Display Team F/A-18C will return to Malta International Airshow 2023! This is an exciting moment for aviation enthusiasts, as the Swiss Air Force’s F/A-18C Hornet Solo display is one of the most thrilling and impressive aerial displays you can witness.
The F/A-18 Hornet is a multi-role fighter jet that is known for its speed, agility, and power. The Swiss Air Force’s solo display team showcases the F/A-18 Hornet’s capabilities in a series of high-speed, low-altitude manoeuvres, including loops, rolls, and high-G turns.
