Auto Credit Based on lewishasnoiq's Teranivo Isles (War Challenge)
The F/A-18C was a multirole (in this case fighter) combat aircraft. As the Union needs a better aircraft for their navy,the United States offers them their newly developed fighter for combat evaluation, giving the Union 50+ airframe as well as all the equipments required for various combat missions .
Union forces would use them for precision strike as well as anti shipping.
The Hornet was equipped with GBU-12 guided bomb as well as AAS-38 targeting pod(for bombing go at an altitude around 2,500-3,500 feet for maximum effectiveness

@MrOofington lol thanks for the info
A bit of correction in your build (yes, nerd time, nerd emoji me later if you want. I won't give a thing)
.
The F/A-18A should come first before the C. Since the war took place in the late 70s into the early 80s, US Navy and Marine Corps squadrons were equipped with F/A-18As and Bs. The C variant came into service in 1987 as a result of a block upgrade incorporating upgraded radar, avionics, and the capacity to carry new missiles such as the AIM-120 AMRAAM and later on the AGM-84E SLAM as well as the IR version of the AGM-65 (AGM-65F).
