Two VMFA-323 “Death Rattlers” F/A-18C Legacy Hornets tearing it up at the 2026 Yuma Airshow with strafing runs, an air-to-air refueling pass, high-speed flybys, and plenty of classic Hornet jet noise.

The Death Rattlers brought the sound and attitude of the legacy Hornet, showing why the F/A-18C is still such a crowd favorite. This video also includes a guest appearance from an F-35B Lightning II, adding a little fifth-generation power to the show.
