==History==
In 1991, planning began for a new theme park adjacent to Universal Studios Florida.

The designers of the ride wanted to simulate being fired out of a cannon and subsequently set about prototyping a launch system. Universal Creative and MTS Systems Corporation had a working prototype in January 1995. Methods to achieve this acceleration were investigated into mid-1996.〔 On-site construction of Islands of Adventure was underway in 1997, with Superior Rigging & Erection being responsible for erecting the supports and track of the roller coaster.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Services )〕 On May 28, 1999, Islands of Adventure officially opened to the public, with ''The Incredible Hulk'' being one of its debut attractions.〔
On August 14, 2015, Universal announced that the coaster would undergo major enhancement and refurbishment work. The ride closed on September 8, 2015 and is expected to reopen in summer of 2016.
