US Navy

The first of the Malice photos released by the US Navy appears to have been taken on 3 April 2026 and shows an F/A-18E Super Hornet of Navy Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 23 (VX-23) carrying four AIM-424 Long Range Air-to-Air Missiles underwing for an unspecified test event – probably a captive carry sortie. The aircraft also carries four AIM-120 AMRAAMs.
