Hawk T.1 Advanced Trainer XX301 was accepted by the RAF February 13, 1980 and assigned to No.1 Tactical Weapons Unit (1TWU) at RAF Brawdy wearing camouflage paint scheme and used for weapons training. In July 1984 the aircraft was converted to a T.1A. In 1992 XX301 was sent to 151 Squadron, 2 TWU at RAF Chivenor. In February 2001 XX301 transferred to FRADU (Fleet Requirements and Air Direction Unit). In 2009 XX301 had markings celebrating 100 Years of Naval Aviation. In June 2015 transferred to 736 NAS, RNAS Culdrose. Designed to meet an RAF requirement for a fast trainer to replace the Folland Gnat, the BaE Hawk first flew on August 21, 1974. This tandem two-seat aircraft has a distinctive appearance, with the front seat positioned below the rear seat so that the instructor has a clear view of the student's cockpit. The Hawk is subsonic in level flight but can achieve Mach 1.15 in a dive, giving trainees the experience of supersonic flight. Hawks are expensive to produce but durable and maneuverable enough to be used for combat. The Hawk is in use in 18 different nations, and is still in production today. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
