F/A18C



Finland is in the process of assembling Hornets for delivery to its air force. F/A18C HN407 of HaLLv 21 was photographed at its Pirkkala base in June 1998. It is of note that the aircraft has its wings folded. This feature was de igned as the US Navy needed this facility for carrier operations. Even though Finland does not operate such ships all aircraft have wing folding capabilities because it would have been more expensive to delete the feature.
