On 3 May 2007, the Australian Government signed a contract to acquire the F/A-18Fs for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), as an interim replacement for the aging F-111.
The Super Hornet order has resulted from concern that the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) will not be operational by the time the F-111s are retired.
The first RAAF Super Hornet was completed in 2009 and first flew from Boeing's factory in St. Louis, Missouri on 21 July 2009.
