Military Tungsten Alloy Cube in F/A-18E/F Super Hornet

Military tungsten alloy cube is usually consisted of W-Ni- Fe or W-Ni- Cu or even W-Ni-Cu-Fe. The most important property for tungsten alloy cube is that small volume with high density, which means it can be used as counterweight for F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.

The Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is a twin-engine carrier-based multirole fighter aircraft variant based on the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet. The F/A-18E single-seat and F/A-18F tandem-seat variants are larger and more advanced derivatives of the F/A-18C and D Hornet. The Super Hornet has an internal 20 mm gun and can carry air-to-air missiles and air-to-surface weapons. Additional fuel can be carried in up to five external fuel tanks and the aircraft can be configured as an airborne tanker by adding an external air refueling system.

The space for counterweight in F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is limited. That requires counterweight must reduce its weight significantly. Military tungsten alloy cube has high weight but small value. So it is ideal counterweight for F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.
