Hawk T Mk1A and Pre-order for the Hawk T Mk1A (FRP) — Back to School

Thank you for the clarification!

A HAWK AT A GOOD BR? This is one of the best updates ever for me

Yeah, honestly my British 7.0/6.7BR GRB lineup will really rock with this addition!

it was already goated with the mk24 spit (which has a better loadout for ground strike) but will be faster than [obligatory OP russian plane] SU11

Finally a replacement for the Strikemaster!

worse CAS capacity but not as slow as a LF mkV spit

The fact that it can equip ADENs makes it a hundred times better

Only $50??? What a steal!!!11!!

I mean, are you surprised?

You aren’t missing out, if you don’t buy it. That should be a good thing.

Yeah, I don’t care about this plane at all, but Gaijin will remain comedically tone-deaf to why premiums are so controversial.

If they were actually tone-deaf, this premium one would be an upgraded Hawk or a unique variant, not just a reskin

Like the 4 pylon thing on the T.1s, Gaijin will say T.2s are unarmed trainers so can’t carry bombs or rockets - They’re not fitted with pylons or gunpods in the RAF - all weapon delivery training is done with virtual munitions simulated by the cockpit systems.
Most you’ll see them carry is AIM-9 acquisition rounds on the wingtips, and a centreline fuel tank.

SAAF Hawk 120, and RAAF Hawk 127 have a demonstrated ability for weapon carriage.

More accurate to say selectively tone-deaf

would be intresting if there was also an aden 25mm pod, the ground belt on it is better for shredding tanks. but the gun is inferior overall

I believe the Indian Hawk 132s (export Hawk T.2) have been spotted with weapons

I think the speed will be a decent advantage.

@KhorneFlakez1337

Exactly. It will be replace the strikemaster for me due to the cannon alone. Also, isn’t the hawk faster than the strikemaster?

Yeah, I thought we would get at least one Gnat before this many Hawk and Hawk 200 variants.
