Published 10 Nov 2025The CF-18s are getting old. Designed in the 70s, they were introduced into Canadian service in 1982, so they’re basically as old as me and yet they’re still flying on the front line. Of course they’re not the same planes today that they were back in 1982. They’ve gone through some changes along the way.
This video is intended to be an overview of the most recent upgrade program to the CF-188 Hornet, called the Hornet Extension Project. And yes that’s its official name but everyone calls it the CF-18, including me.
