| Ian, e-mail, 29.09.2011 18:52 It speaks volumes of the Hawks efficacy that the US chose it to train its Naval Aviators over a home grown product. Very few items of foreign military hardware ever get used by them, even when they are of superior quality. reply | | Dave DiMarchi, e-mail, 16.08.2008 19:30 I flew the company demonstrator Hawk in '89. A very nice advanced trainer, albeit with a few ergonomic quirks. Much preferred over the USN's T-45 Goshawk version - 10% heavier (beefed up for carrier ops), with 10% less power....do the math. reply |
