Giant Scale Rhino? What on earth am I talking about you might ask...
Well, in doing some research on the full scale aircraft, I was very surprised to find out that the unofficial name for the F/A-18 Super Hornet is RHINO!!
"The Super Hornet is unofficially known as "Rhino" in operational use. This name was chosen to distinguish the newer variants from the legacy F-18A/B/C/D Hornet and avoid confusion during carrier deck operations."

I caught up with this superb looking model at the recent "Jets Over The High Desert" RC event held at the Victor Valley RC Club's beautiful facility in Hesperia California on June 7-8, 2024.
This jet is made by BVM (Bob Violett Models) and has incredible scale features, right down to the scale squared inlets (specific to the full scale model), and a functioning arrestor hook! This model is powered by a single KingTech 210 turbine engine and is owned and expertly flown by Jason Roswell.
