Indeed, the “Tophatters” were the pioneers of carrier operations when they began training aboard the USA’s first ever aircraft carrier, the USS Langley, in 1926. Based at NAS Lemoore, this fighter attack squadron now flies the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. The multi-mission F/A-18E/F "Super Hornet" strike fighter is an upgrade of the combat-proven night strike F/A-18C/D. The Super Hornet will provide the battle group commander with a platform that has range, endurance, and ordnance carriage capabilities comparable to the A-6 which have been retired.
