The General Dynamics F-111 is an American medium-range strategic bomber, reconnaissance and tactical strike aircraft designed in the 1960s.

It incorporates TF30-P-3 engines with 12,000 lbf dry and afterburning thrust and ""Triple Plow I"" variable intakes. Theres a 158 total production of the F-111A, including 17 preproduction aircraft that were later brought up to production standards.

There were four F-111As converted to F-111C standard and provided to Australia as attrition replacements. Some of the F-111As delivered to the Royal Australian Air Force were Vietnam veterans.

In 2010, the Royal Australian Air Force will replace its F-111s with 24 F/A-18F Super Hornets. |
