With the Marine Corps planning to operate the F/A-18 A, C, and D aircraft to at least 2024 to 2026, careful planning and execution of airframe inspections, repairs, and modifications will be critical to maintaining airworthiness, operational availability, and combat readiness.(...)The F/A-18A-D Service Life Assessment Program (SLAP) showed that the airframe can fly to 10,000 hours with a combination of modifications and inspections to maintain airworthiness.By 2015 Boeing was preparing to undertake an F/A-18E/F Service Life Extension Program [SLEP] to extend the aircraft’s usability from 6,000 flight hours to 9,000 hours. The first Super Hornet to reach 6,000h was inducted for overhaul in 2015, while the lives of legacy Hornet types were already being extended out to 10,000 hours.<a href="https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/f-18-service-life.htm">https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/f-18-service-life.htm</a>Habria que ver Hornets de paises que no los tuvieron en carrier pues con el SLAP les puedes sacar 4.000 más (hasta las 10.000 y en mejores condiciones de opreación -fuera de un CVN y de la sal de mar-) ... o 20 años volando 200 horas anuales... o 40 años volando 100 horas anuales.A mi me gusta como opción de segunda mano. Es confiable, no tan caro de operar como otros bimotores y tiene hasta AESA homologado. Un alpedismo interesante.AHORA, Comparto lo que dices respecto de los Hornets de USA (Marines)... Es espantoso lo relatado aquí<a href="http://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/20019/life-on-the-flight-line-confessions-of-a-u-s-marine-f-a-18-hornet-maintainer">http://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/20019/life-on-the-flight-line-confessions-of-a-u-s-marine-f-a-18-hornet-maintainer</a>Saludos</blockquote>
