British Aerospace
Hawk 100 is an advanced two-seat weapons systems
trainer with enhanced ground attack capability.
The aircraft provides fighter lead-in training
and navigator and weapons systems operator
training. The nose of the Hawk 100 is
re-profiled to accommodate additional sensors
and avionics systems, including a
forward-looking infrared (FLIR). The aircraft
has seven hardpoints on the wings for weapon
payloads. Short-range air-to-air missiles can be
mounted on the wingtip missile launchers.
The Hawk LIFT
(Lead-In Fighter Trainer) derived from the
Australian Hawk 127, is intended to provide
training for new-generation combat aircraft such
as the Eurofighter Typhoon or Saab Gripen, and
features substantially improved cockpit and
avionics. |

British Aerospace Hawk 200
|
The
British Aerospace Hawk 200 is a
single-seat, lightweight multi-role
combat aircraft for air defense and
ground attack missions. The first Hawk
200 demonstrator actually flew in May
19, 1986, well before the Hawk 100
demonstrator, but was lost two months
later in an accident that killed test
pilot Jim Hawkins, who either became
disoriented or ironically blacked out
while demonstrating the aircraft's
agility.
The Hawk
200 has the Adour 871 engine, combat
wing, and some of the other combat kit
of the Hawk 100, but along with the
single seat configuration, which
resulted in an entirely new fuselage
from the cockpit forward, also features
a still taller tailfin; an optional
fixed in-flight refueling probe; and the
Northrop-Grumman AN/APG-66H
pulse-Doppler X-band multimode radar,
with ten air-to-air and ten
air-to-surface modes.
The Hawk
200 has eleven external store points
with four underwing pylons, an
under-fuselage pylon, and wingtip
air-to-air missile stations. The range
of external stores includes air-to-air
missiles, a gunpod, rocket launchers,
reconnaissance pod, retarded and
free-fall bombs up to 540 kg, runway
cratering, anti-personnel and light
Armor bombs, cluster bombs, practice
bomb and rocket carriers and external
fuel tanks. |
