Last week, the first of two classic F/A-18A Hornets were officially handed over to the Australian War Memorial on Friday.

Classic Hornet fleet is being retired as 72 F-35A Joint Strike Fighters are introduced into service.

A21-022, which was deployed on three Middle East operations, was partially disassembled and then put back together in order to make the trip to Canberra from RAAF Base Williamtown.

A21-022 was retired on 14 May 2020 after completing 30 years in service, including 6131 flying hours. Minister Price previously called the fighter a “special aircraft” for the RAAF.
