The Oriental hornet Vespa orientalis(von. Linn,, 1771) is a social insect which founds an annual(or semiseasonal) colony during the spring. These colonies usually prevail during the warm season only and are all comprised most of the time, of females only, as well as the progeny of one fertile female, namely, the queen. Only during autumn, just before termination of the life cycle, do males make their appearance. 2, record 5, English, - oriental%20hornet

CF-18s often carry heavy munitions, which reduces the amount of fuel storage space. Inflight refuelling from tanker aircraft allows the Hornet to stay in the air longer before returning to base. The Hornet's extendable probe plugs into a hose at the rear of the tanker. Refuelling takes only a few minutes, but requires close-formation flying and a high degree of concentration from the pilot. 2, record 12, English, - in%2Dflight%20refuelling%20probe
