History

During the Usean coup d'état, the Usean Rebel Forces's Beast Squadron^[1] and the Z.O.E. Major^[2] were notable aces of the war.

During the Circum-Pacific War, Super Hornets were operated by both the Osean Air Defense Force and the Yuktobanian Air Force.

During the Emmeria-Estovakia War, the Republic of Emmeria Navy had numerous F/A-18Es stationed on its aircraft carriers.^[3]

During the Aurelian War, F/A-18Es were operated by the Leasath Air Force. One LAF ace, callsign Storm, also used the aircraft.^[4]

Joint Assault universe

Both Martinez Security and the Valahia were known to have operated the Super Hornet. One particular pilot, Milosz Sulejmani, operated an F/A-18E while flying for both sides.
