Why is the F/A-18 Super Hornet being retired Boeing?

Boeing, the renowned American aerospace powerhouse, has declared the sunset of an era with the cessation of production for its legendary F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter by 2027. This pivotal decision stems from the dearth of new orders, both domestically and internationally.

Mark Sears, Boeing's vice president for fighter jets, elucidated, "Despite our efforts in various international campaigns, success has eluded us." He confirmed the conclusion of ongoing programs, with no active negotiations with the US Navy for further F-18 acquisitions beyond existing contracts.
