Meng Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet – Top Gun 1:48 – build review

March 2, 2023 By Francis Porter

Meng Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet - Top Gun 1:48
Full review with Dave Coward

Background

This is my second build of this Meng kit but this time I wanted to build it as Maverick’s Hornet from the movie Top Gun ‘Maverick’. I’ve already done this subject using the Revell F/A-18E but I was never happy with the finished model so I wanted to do it with this Meng kit which is a far better kit. I won’t go into that much depth about the build as you can find a far more in depth build review of this in my other build but what I did want to do this time was to put it in a flying pose so I will concentrate on that part of the build in this review.

A search of the internet provides lots of reference pictures of this aircraft.
