  In March 2023, the F/A-18F Super Hornet, equipped with a full weapon load, served a crucial role as part of VX-9, the United States Navy’s Air Test and Evaluation Squadron, commonly known as the “Vampires.” VX-9 plays a pivotal role in evaluating and testing the capabilities of naval aircraft and their associated systems. During this period, the F/A-18F Super Hornet from VX-9, armed with a comprehensive weapons payload, would likely have been engaged in rigorous testing scenarios to assess the aircraft’s combat readiness, mission effectiveness, and interoperability with various weapon systems.

The F/A-18F Super Hornet, with its advanced avionics and weapons systems, continues to be a cornerstone of the U.S. Navy’s carrier-based airpower.
