Abstract

CBO compares the availability and use of the Department of the Navy’s F/A-18E/F Super Hornet fighter aircraft with the availability and use of their predecessor F/A-18C/D Hornets and other aircraft operated by the Department of the Navy and the Air Force.CBO found that availability rates have declined with aircraft age for most types of aircraft, but that Super Hornets have aged more adversely than their predecessor F/A-18C/Ds; flying hours do not explain differing patterns of availability decline; and availability rates of Super Hornets may stabilize or continue to decline.
